Break the Cycle of Violence Act

The bill authorizes significant federal appropriations for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Department of Labor (DOL) to fund community-based violence intervention programs and job training/workforce development initiatives. HHS grants will support trauma-responsive care and hospital-based violence intervention programs, directly benefiting the Healthcare sector. DOL grants are specifically for year-round job training, workforce programs, and community colleges aimed at 'opportunity youth' in affected communities, providing a direct positive impact on the Education sector.
