This bill amends the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 to incentivize states to implement domestic violence prevention training. It proposes to increase grants for states that require individuals seeking licensure as cosmetologists or barbers to undergo specific training related to domestic violence. The required domestic violence prevention training must be provided at no cost by a nonprofit anti-domestic violence organization, focusing on how to recognize the signs of domestic violence, respond appropriately, and refer clients to support resources. States meeting these criteria can receive a grant increase of up to 10 percent of their average funding from the three most recent awards. Eligible states must apply to the Attorney General for these grant increases, which are awarded for a one-year term and can be renewed, though limited to a total of three years. The bill authorizes an appropriation of $5,000,000 for each fiscal year from 2026 through 2032 to fund these grant increases.
