Torture Victims Relief Reauthorization Act of 2005

The Torture Victims Relief Reauthorization Act of 2005 (S. 365) is a bipartisan bill designed to provide continued funding for the rehabilitation and treatment of individuals who have survived torture. The legislation authorizes federal grants for domestic and international treatment centers that offer medical, psychological, and social services to survivors. Additionally, it provides for a United States contribution to the United Nations Voluntary Fund for Victims of Torture to support global relief efforts. For citizens, this bill ensures that specialized care remains available for refugees and survivors living within the U.S. while maintaining American involvement in international human rights assistance.
