RISE from Trauma Act

The RISE from Trauma Act (S. 2086) aims to expand support systems for children and families who have experienced trauma, such as domestic violence, community violence, or substance abuse. The bill would provide federal funding for community-based programs, increase training for teachers and healthcare workers to recognize signs of trauma, and establish a national center to help law enforcement interact more effectively with children exposed to violence. For everyday citizens, this legislation focuses on improving long-term mental health and safety outcomes by integrating trauma-informed care into schools, hospitals, and social services.
