YourVoice.Now Summary
Transparency & AccountabilityTraining that helps health workers spot human trafficking could be paid for again — through 2030.
Transparency & Accountability
The bill approves paying for the training only through 2030. To keep it going after that, Congress would have to pass another bill.
More about this bill
Most people would see no change in daily life. The bill renews federal approval to fund a health training program known as SOAR. The program teaches doctors, nurses, and social service workers to spot signs of human trafficking. It also covers what staff should do when they see those signs. Approval to fund the program ran out after 2024, and no approval covers 2025. The bill sets a new window of 2026 through 2030. Nothing else about the program changes. Approval is not the same as money, so Congress would still decide each year what the program gets.
Congressional Summary
Reauthorizes through FY2030 the SOAR to Health and Wellness Training Program, which trains healthcare and social service providers to identify and support human trafficking victims.
