Donald J. Cohen National Child Traumatic Stress Initiative
Section 107 · Sec. 107 ·
What this chapter is about
This part changes an older law about helping children after hard events. It renumbers a piece of that law. It widens the wording from violence to hard events of any kind. It tells grant winners to build training. It also sets new money amounts.

What the document says
“by redesignating such part as part J”
The section renumbers the second part G of title V of the Public Health Service Act as part J, and renumbers sections 581 through 584 as sections 596 through 596C. Two parts of that title had been given the same letter.
What the document actually says
“by redesignating such part as part J”
That sentence, in plain words
A part of an older law gets a new letter. It was part G. Now it is part J.
What this is about
Two parts of the same law had been given the letter G. That makes them hard to cite. Giving one a new letter fixes the clash.

What the document says
“in the section heading, by striking ``violence related stress'' and inserting ``traumatic events''”
The section amends the heading of section 582 of the Public Health Service Act, replacing the phrase violence related stress with traumatic events.
What the document actually says
“in the section heading, by striking ``violence related stress'' and inserting ``traumatic events''”
That sentence, in plain words
Some words in a title are taken out. New words go in. The new words are traumatic events.
What this is about
Violence is one thing that can hurt a child. A crash, a fire, or a loss can too. The new words cover all of them.

“NCTSI grantees shall develop trainings and other resources, as applicable and appropriate, to support implementation of the evidence-based practices developed and disseminated under such subsection.”
The section adds paragraph (2) to section 582(d) of the Public Health Service Act, requiring grantees under the initiative to develop trainings and other resources supporting the practices developed and disseminated under subsection (a)(2). A matching addition to subsection (e) directs grantees to collaborate with each other, with the coordinating center and with the Secretary.
What the document actually says
“NCTSI grantees shall develop trainings and other resources, as applicable and appropriate, to support implementation of the evidence-based practices developed and disseminated under such subsection.”
That sentence, in plain words
Groups that win this money must build training. They must build other help too. The training backs methods shown to work.
What this is about
NCTSI is short for the National Child Traumatic Stress Initiative. It is a network of centers that treat children after hard events. Grantees are the centers that win money from it.

“To be eligible to receive a grant, contract, or cooperative agreement under subsection (a), a public or nonprofit private entity or an Indian Tribe or Tribal organization shall submit to the Secretary an application at such time, in such manner, and containing such information and assurances as the Secretary may require, including--”
The section rewrites section 582(h) of the Public Health Service Act. The rewritten subsection requires an application that includes a plan for evaluating the funded activities, covering both process and outcomes, an evaluation at the end of the project period, and a description of how the applicant will support evaluation efforts led by the Secretary or the coordinating center.
What the document actually says
“To be eligible to receive a grant, contract, or cooperative agreement under subsection (a), a public or nonprofit private entity or an Indian Tribe or Tribal organization shall submit to the Secretary an application at such time, in such manner, and containing such information and assurances as the Secretary may require, including--”
That sentence, in plain words
A group must send in a form to get this money. The Secretary says what the form must hold. It must include a plan to judge the work.
What this is about
Judging the work has two sides. One asks how the work was done. The other asks what came of it.

What the document says
“There is authorized to be appropriated to carry out this section-- ``(1) $98,887,000 for fiscal year 2026; ``(2) $98,887,000 for fiscal year 2027; ``(3) $98,887,000 for fiscal year 2028; ``(4) $100,000,000 for fiscal year 2029; and ``(5) $100,000,000 for fiscal year 2030.''.”
The section rewrites section 582(j) of the Public Health Service Act, setting a separate ceiling for each of the five fiscal years from 2026 through 2030 rather than one figure for all of them.
What the document actually says
“There is authorized to be appropriated to carry out this section-- ``(1) $98,887,000 for fiscal year 2026; ``(2) $98,887,000 for fiscal year 2027; ``(3) $98,887,000 for fiscal year 2028; ``(4) $100,000,000 for fiscal year 2029; and ``(5) $100,000,000 for fiscal year 2030.''.”
That sentence, in plain words
The top amount is set one year at a time. It is $98,887,000 for each of the first three years. It rises to $100,000,000 for the last two.
What this is about
A ceiling is not a payment. Congress must still vote to hand over the money each year.

What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out
Each change that alters what somebody must do or where a rule sits: the renumbering of a duplicated part, the new section heading, the duty on grantees to develop trainings, the duty to collaborate, the rewritten application and evaluation subsection, and the new spending amounts.
Purely mechanical amendments. Redesignating paragraphs as subparagraphs, adjusting margins, capitalizing Tribes, and inserting the words and dissemination are recorded only where they change what somebody must do.
The section works by amending sections 581 through 584 and section 582 of the Public Health Service Act, and refers to section 144 of the Community Renewal Tax Relief Act of 2000. None of those is indexed here, so nothing is recorded about the text they carried before this law.
