H.R. 7494 — Preventing Domestic Violence Homicides Through Lethality Assessment Training and Technical Assistance Act

This section authorizes the Attorney General to award grants to one or more nonprofit or tribal organizations to establish a national training and technical assistance center that promotes and supports adoption of lethality assessment programs by States, units of local government, and Indian Tribes. The section authorizes appropriations of $5,000,000 for each fiscal year beginning in fiscal year 2026, to remain available until expended, and defines a lethality assessment program as one that rapidly connects domestic violence victims to community-based services, helps first responders identify high-risk situations, and uses validated evidence-based tools to identify victims at high risk of serious injury or death by an intimate partner.
