School Violence Prevention Act

Creates a federal grant program to fund and expand school- and community-based violence prevention programs focused on K–12 students and youth under 19. Grants will support evidence-based, culturally competent, trauma-informed services and require partnerships among state and local education agencies and community nonprofits, with evaluation, reporting, and dissemination of best practices.

The Secretary (in consultation with the Education Secretary) must set outcome measures, require regular grantee reports, contract independent researchers to evaluate results, publicly share best practices, and the program is authorized for funding for FY2025–FY2031.
