The Trauma-Informed Schools Act of 2024 amends federal education law to require schools receiving federal funding to implement trauma-informed practices. The bill defines these practices as evidence-based professional development for school staff that recognizes how adverse experiences affect student behavior and learning, along with disciplinary approaches that use positive interventions and restorative practices instead of harsh punishments. Schools must also engage families and staff in planning to build school-wide safety, support social-emotional skills, and prevent bias. The legislation requires states and local school districts to describe in their federal education plans how they will increase the use of these practices and provide staff training, and it specifically allows federal education funds to be used to support trauma-informed initiatives. The bill does not specify new funding amounts or implementation timelines, instead integrating trauma-informed requirements into existing federal education accountability and funding frameworks.
