The Community Risk Training and Response Act of 2026 provides federal grants to help states establish crisis intervention programs centered on extreme risk protection orders. The Attorney General will distribute one-year grants ranging from $200,000 to $500,000 to each state to fund technical assistance for law enforcement, prosecutors, judges, court staff, healthcare providers, educators, and agencies managing these programs. The grants will support the development of standardized training materials and implementation guidelines to ensure states use consistent, evidence-based approaches when handling extreme risk protection order cases. This funding aims to help states create effective crisis intervention court proceedings and related programs that respond to mental health and behavioral crises. The legislation essentially establishes a federal support system to help states build capacity and expertise in managing cases where individuals pose a risk to themselves or others.
