The Healing Partnerships for Survivors Act authorizes $30 million annually for fiscal years 2026 through 2030 to fund grants that strengthen partnerships between sexual assault service programs and health care providers, behavioral health services, and disability programs. Eligible recipients include state and territorial sexual assault coalitions, nonprofit community-based sexual assault programs, and tribal organizations, which can use funds to develop trauma-informed training, provide direct services like therapy and case management, and create coordinated responses for survivors across their lifespan, including adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. The bill also dedicates up to 10 percent of available funding for technical assistance and training to grantees and potential grantees, with a separate $5 million annual cap for federal administration. This legislation amends the existing Family Violence Prevention and Services Act to expand its focus to include sexual assault alongside domestic violence and dating violence.
