Authorizes one-year grants to eligible state, Tribal, and local agencies to start or expand victim-centered, trauma-informed training for law enforcement, emergency medical technicians (EMTs), and related initial training programs. Grants fund training that must be evidence-based or promising, cover specified trauma topics and survivor interactions, meet minimum hour requirements, be delivered by diverse trainers, and be accompanied by a searchable trainer list and annual reports to Congress.
The program aims to improve first-response interactions with survivors, reduce re-traumatization, and build provider capacity; agencies must apply for competitive grants and comply with program reporting and trainer-listing requirements. Funding levels and appropriations are not specified in the text provided.
