 TITLE II--IMPROVING SERVICES FOR VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING 
                 VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND STALKING

SEC. 201. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
        (1) Nearly \1/3\ of American women report physical or sexual 
    abuse by a husband or boyfriend at some point in their lives.
        (2) According to the National Crime Victimization Survey, 
    248,000 Americans 12 years of age and older were raped or sexually 
    assaulted in 2002.
        (3) Rape and sexual assault in the United States is estimated 
    to cost $127,000,000,000 per year, including--
            (A) lost productivity;
            (B) medical and mental health care;
            (C) police and fire services;
            (D) social services;
            (E) loss of and damage to property; and
            (F) reduced quality of life.
        (4) Nonreporting of sexual assault in rural areas is a 
    particular problem because of the high rate of nonstranger sexual 
    assault.
        (5) Geographic isolation often compounds the problems facing 
    sexual assault victims. The lack of anonymity and accessible 
    support services can limit opportunities for justice for victims.
        (6) Domestic elder abuse is primarily family abuse. The 
    National Elder Abuse Incidence Study found that the perpetrator was 
    a family member in 90 percent of cases.
        (7) Barriers for older victims leaving abusive relationships 
    include--
            (A) the inability to support themselves;
            (B) poor health that increases their dependence on the 
        abuser;
            (C) fear of being placed in a nursing home; and
            (D) ineffective responses by domestic abuse programs and 
        law enforcement.
        (8) Disabled women comprise another vulnerable population with 
    unmet needs. Women with disabilities are more likely to be the 
    victims of abuse and violence than women without disabilities 
    because of their increased physical, economic, social, or 
    psychological dependence on others.
        (9) Many women with disabilities also fail to report the abuse, 
    since they are dependent on their abusers and fear being abandoned 
    or institutionalized.
        (10) Of the 598 battered women's programs surveyed--
            (A) only 35 percent of these programs offered disability 
        awareness training for their staff; and
            (B) only 16 percent dedicated a staff member to provide 
        services to women with disabilities.
        (11) Problems of domestic violence are exacerbated for 
    immigrants when spouses control the immigration status of their 
    family members, and abusers use threats of refusal to file 
    immigration papers and threats to deport spouses and children as 
    powerful tools to prevent battered immigrant women from seeking 
    help, trapping battered immigrant women in violent homes because of 
    fear of deportation.
        (12) Battered immigrant women who attempt to flee abusive 
    relationships may not have access to bilingual shelters or 
    bilingual professionals, and face restrictions on public or 
    financial assistance. They may also lack assistance of a certified 
    interpreter in court, when reporting complaints to the police or a 
    9-1-1 operator, or even in acquiring information about their rights 
    and the legal system.
        (13) More than 500 men and women call the National Domestic 
    Violence Hotline every day to get immediate, informed, and 
    confidential assistance to help deal with family violence.
        (14) The National Domestic Violence Hotline service is 
    available, toll-free, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, with 
    bilingual staff, access to translators in 150 languages, and a TTY 
    line for the hearing-impaired.
        (15) With access to over 5,000 shelters and service providers 
    across the United States, Puerto Rico, and the United States Virgin 
    Islands, the National Domestic Violence Hotline provides crisis 
    intervention and immediately connects callers with sources of help 
    in their local community.
        (16) Approximately 60 percent of the callers indicate that 
    calling the Hotline is their first attempt to address a domestic 
    violence situation and that they have not called the police or any 
    other support services.
        (17) Between 2000 and 2003, there was a 27 percent increase in 
    call volume at the National Domestic Violence Hotline.
        (18) Improving technology infrastructure at the National 
    Domestic Violence Hotline and training advocates, volunteers, and 
    other staff on upgraded technology will drastically increase the 
    Hotline's ability to answer more calls quickly and effectively.

   TITLE III--SERVICES, PROTECTION, AND JUSTICE FOR YOUNG VICTIMS OF 
                                VIOLENCE

SEC. 301. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
        (1) Youth, under the age of 18, account for 67 percent of all 
    sexual assault victimizations reported to law enforcement 
    officials.
        (2) The Department of Justice consistently finds that young 
    women between the ages of 16 and 24 experience the highest rate of 
    non-fatal intimate partner violence.
        (3) In 1 year, over 4,000 incidents of rape or sexual assault 
    occurred in public schools across the country.
        (4) Young people experience particular obstacles to seeking 
    help. They often do not have access to money, transportation, or 
    shelter services. They must overcome issues such as distrust of 
    adults, lack of knowledge about available resources, or pressure 
    from peers and parents.
        (5) A needs assessment on teen relationship abuse for the State 
    of California, funded by the California Department of Health 
    Services, identified a desire for confidentiality and confusion 
    about the law as 2 of the most significant barriers to young 
    victims of domestic and dating violence seeking help.
        (6) Only one State specifically allows for minors to petition 
    the court for protection orders.
        (7) Many youth are involved in dating relationships, and these 
    relationships can include the same kind of domestic violence and 
    dating violence seen in the adult population. In fact, more than 40 
    percent of all incidents of domestic violence involve people who 
    are not married.
        (8) 40 percent of girls ages 14 to 17 report knowing someone 
    their age who has been hit or beaten by a boyfriend, and 13 percent 
    of college women report being stalked.
        (9) Of college women who said they had been the victims of rape 
    or attempted rape, 12.8 percent of completed rapes, 35 percent of 
    attempted rapes, and 22.9 percent of threatened rapes took place on 
    a date. Almost 60 percent of the completed rapes that occurred on 
    campus took place in the victim's residence.
        (10) According to a 3-year study of student-athletes at 10 
    Division I universities, male athletes made up only 3.3 percent of 
    the general male university population, but they accounted for 19 
    percent of the students reported for sexual assault and 35 percent 
    of domestic violence perpetrators.

SEC. 302. RAPE PREVENTION AND EDUCATION.

    Section 393B(c) of part J of title III of the Public Health Service 
Act (42 U.S.C. 280b-1c(c)) is amended to read as follows:
    ``(c) Authorization of Appropriations.--
        ``(1) In general.--There is authorized to be appropriated to 
    carry out this section $80,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2007 
    through 2011.
        ``(2) National sexual violence resource center allotment.--Of 
    the total amount made available under this subsection in each 
    fiscal year, not less than $1,500,000 shall be available for 
    allotment under subsection (b).''.

    The Violence Against Women Act of 1994 (108 Stat. 1902 et seq.) is 
amended by adding at the end the following:

 ``Subtitle M--Strengthening America's Families by Preventing Violence 
                       Against Women and Children

``SEC. 41301. FINDINGS.

    ``Congress finds that--
        ``(1) the former United States Advisory Board on Child Abuse 
    suggests that domestic violence may be the single major precursor 
    to child abuse and neglect fatalities in this country;
        ``(2) studies suggest that as many as 10,000,000 children 
    witness domestic violence every year;
        ``(3) studies suggest that among children and teenagers, recent 
    exposure to violence in the home was a significant factor in 
    predicting a child's violent behavior;
        ``(4) a study by the Nurse-Family Partnership found that 
    children whose parents did not participate in home visitation 
    programs that provided coaching in parenting skills, advice and 
    support, were almost 5 times more likely to be abused in their 
    first 2 years of life;
        ``(5) a child's exposure to domestic violence seems to pose the 
    greatest independent risk for being the victim of any act of 
    partner violence as an adult;
        ``(6) children exposed to domestic violence are more likely to 
    believe that using violence is an effective means of getting one's 
    needs met and managing conflict in close relationships;
        ``(7) children exposed to abusive parenting, harsh or erratic 
    discipline, or domestic violence are at increased risk for juvenile 
    crime; and
        ``(8) in a national survey of more than 6,000 American 
    families, 50 percent of men who frequently assaulted their wives 
    also frequently abused their children.

``SEC. 41302. PURPOSE.

    ``The purpose of this subtitle is to--
        ``(1) prevent crimes involving violence against women, 
    children, and youth;
        ``(2) increase the resources and services available to prevent 
    violence against women, children, and youth;
        ``(3) reduce the impact of exposure to violence in the lives of 
    children and youth so that the intergenerational cycle of violence 
    is interrupted;
        ``(4) develop and implement education and services programs to 
    prevent children in vulnerable families from becoming victims or 
    perpetrators of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, 
    or stalking;
        ``(5) promote programs to ensure that children and youth 
    receive the assistance they need to end the cycle of violence and 
    develop mutually respectful, nonviolent relationships; and
        ``(6) encourage collaboration among community-based 
    organizations and governmental agencies serving children and youth,

  TITLE V--STRENGTHENING THE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM'S RESPONSE TO DOMESTIC 
        VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND STALKING

SEC. 501. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
        (1) The health-related costs of intimate partner violence in 
    the United States exceed $5,800,000,000 annually.
        (2) Thirty-seven percent of all women who sought care in 
    hospital emergency rooms for violence-related injuries were injured 
    by a current or former spouse, boyfriend, or girlfriend.
        (3) In addition to injuries sustained during violent episodes, 
    physical and psychological abuse is linked to a number of adverse 
    physical and mental health effects. Women who have been abused are 
    much more likely to suffer from chronic pain, diabetes, depression, 
    unintended pregnancies, substance abuse and sexually transmitted 
    infections, including HIV/AIDS.
        (4) Health plans spend an average of $1,775 more a year on 
    abused women than on general enrollees.
        (5) Each year about 324,000 pregnant women in the United States 
    are battered by the men in their lives. This battering leads to 
    complications of pregnancy, including low weight gain, anemia, 
    infections, and first and second trimester bleeding.
        (6) Pregnant and recently pregnant women are more likely to be 
    victims of homicide than to die of any other pregnancy-related 
    cause, and evidence exists that a significant proportion of all 
    female homicide victims are killed by their intimate partners.
        (7) Children who witness domestic violence are more likely to 
    exhibit behavioral and physical health problems including 
    depression, anxiety, and violence towards peers. They are also more 
    likely to attempt suicide, abuse drugs and alcohol, run away from 
    home, engage in teenage prostitution, and commit sexual assault 
    crimes.
        (8) Recent research suggests that women experiencing domestic 
    violence significantly increase their safety-promoting behaviors 
    over the short- and long-term when health care providers screen 
    for, identify, and provide followup care and information to address 
    the violence.
        (9) Currently, only about 10 percent of primary care physicians 
    routinely screen for intimate partner abuse during new patient 
    visits and 9 percent routinely screen for intimate partner abuse 
    during periodic checkups.
        (10) Recent clinical studies have proven the effectiveness of a 
    2-minute screening for early detection of abuse of pregnant women. 
    Additional longitudinal studies have tested a 10-minute 
    intervention that was proven highly effective in increasing the 
    safety of pregnant abused women. Comparable research does not yet

   TITLE VI--HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES AND SAFETY FOR BATTERED WOMEN AND 
                                CHILDREN

SEC. 601. ADDRESSING THE HOUSING NEEDS OF VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, 
              DATING VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND STALKING.

    The Violence Against Women Act of 1994 (42 U.S.C. 13701 et seq.) is 
amended by adding at the end the following:

   ``Subtitle N--Addressing the Housing Needs of Victims of Domestic 
        Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking

``SEC. 41401. FINDINGS.

    ``Congress finds that:
        ``(1) There is a strong link between domestic violence and 
    homelessness. Among cities surveyed, 44 percent identified domestic 
    violence as a primary cause of homelessness.
        ``(2) Ninety-two percent of homeless women have experienced 
    severe physical or sexual abuse at some point in their lives. Of 
    all homeless women and children, 60 percent had been abused by age 
    12, and 63 percent have been victims of intimate partner violence 
    as adults.
        ``(3) Women and families across the country are being 
    discriminated against, denied access to, and even evicted from 
    public and subsidized housing because of their status as victims of 
    domestic violence.
        ``(4) A recent survey of legal service providers around the 
    country found that these providers have responded to almost 150 
    documented eviction cases in the last year alone where the tenant 
    was evicted because of the domestic violence crimes committed 
    against her. In addition, nearly 100 clients were denied housing 
    because of their status as victims of domestic violence.
        ``(5) Women who leave their abusers frequently lack adequate 
    emergency shelter options. The lack of adequate emergency options 
    for victims presents a serious threat to their safety and the 
    safety of their children. Requests for emergency shelter by 
    homeless women with children increased by 78 percent of United 
    States cities surveyed in 2004. In the same year, 32 percent of the 
    requests for shelter by homeless families went unmet due to the 
    lack of available emergency shelter beds.
        ``(6) The average stay at an emergency shelter is 60 days, 
    while the average length of time it takes a homeless family to 
    secure housing is 6 to 10 months.
        ``(7) Victims of domestic violence often return to abusive 
    partners because they cannot find long-term housing.
        ``(8) There are not enough Federal housing rent vouchers 
    available to accommodate the number of people in need of long-term 
    housing. Some people remain on the waiting list for Federal housing 
    rent vouchers for years, while some lists are closed.
        ``(9) Transitional housing resources and services provide an 
    essential continuum between emergency shelter provision and 
    independent living. A majority of women in transitional housing 
    programs stated that had these programs not existed, they would 
    have likely gone back to abusive partners.
        ``(10) Because abusers frequently manipulate finances in an 
    effort to control their partners, victims often lack steady income, 
    credit history, landlord references, and a current address, all of 
    which are necessary to obtain long-term permanent housing.
        ``(11) Victims of domestic violence in rural areas face 
    additional barriers, challenges, and unique circumstances, such as 
    geographical isolation, poverty, lack of public transportation 
    systems, shortages of health care providers, under-insurance or 
    lack of health insurance, difficulty ensuring confidentiality in 
    small communities, and decreased access to many resources (such as 
    advanced education, job opportunities, and adequate childcare).
        ``(12) Congress and the Secretary of Housing and Urban 
    Development have recognized in recent years that families 
    experiencing domestic violence have unique needs that should be 
    addressed by those administering the Federal housing programs.

``SEC. 41402. PURPOSE.

    ``The purpose of this subtitle is to reduce domestic violence, 
dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, and to prevent 
homelessness by--
        ``(1) protecting the safety of victims of domestic violence, 
    dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking who reside in 
    homeless shelters, public housing, assisted housing, tribally 
    designated housing, or other emergency, transitional, permanent, or 
    affordable housing, and ensuring that such victims have meaningful 
    access to the criminal justice system without jeopardizing such 
    housing;
        ``(2) creating long-term housing solutions that develop 
    communities and provide sustainable living solutions for victims of 
    domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking;
        ``(3) building collaborations among victim service providers, 
    homeless service providers, housing providers, and housing agencies 
    to provide appropriate services, interventions, and training to 
    address the housing needs of victims of domestic violence, dating 
    violence, sexual assault, and stalking; and
        ``(4) enabling public and assisted housing agencies, tribally 
    designated housing entities, private landlords, property management 
    companies, and other housing providers and agencies to respond 
    appropriately to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual 
    assault, and stalking, while maintaining a safe environment for all 
    housing residents.

    project to any applicant on the basis that the applicant is or has 
    been a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, or stalking if 
    the applicant otherwise qualifies for assistance or admission, and 
    that nothing in this section shall be construed to supersede any 
    provision of any Federal, State, or local law that provides greater

    cause'' the following: ``, and that an incident or incidents of 
    actual or threatened domestic violence, dating violence, or

    physical violence against family members or others, without 
    evicting, removing, terminating assistance to, or otherwise

    raped in their lifetimes;
        (2) Indian women experience 7 sexual assaults per 1,000, 
    compared with 4 per 1,000 among Black Americans, 3 per 1,000 among 
    Caucasians, 2 per 1,000 among Hispanic women, and 1 per 1,000 among 
    Asian women;
        (3) Indian women experience the violent crime of battering at a 
    rate of 23.2 per 1,000, compared with 8 per 1,000 among Caucasian
