The "Healing Partnerships for Survivors Act" proposes to amend the Family Violence Prevention and Services Act by establishing a new grant program. This program aims to strengthen relationships between health and wellness providers, behavioral health programs, disability programs, and community-based sexual assault programs. The primary objective is to develop and implement trauma-informed, culturally relevant partnerships, training, and services to improve the comprehensive response for sexual assault survivors across their lifespan , including adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. Eligible entities for these grants include State, territorial, and tribal sexual assault coalitions, as well as nonprofit community-based sexual assault programs and Indian tribes. Funds can be used for various activities such as providing direct services like screening, therapy, substance-use services, and temporary housing assistance. Grantees must also provide support for survivors receiving healthcare and offer training for staff and partners. The bill authorizes $30,000,000 annually for fiscal years 2026 through 2030 for these grants, with a portion dedicated to technical assistance and training for grantees, while ensuring victim privacy and confidentiality.
