Family Strengthening Infrastructure Act of 2024

Section 106 of the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (42 U.S.C. 5106a) is amended by adding at the end the following:

To carry out this section, in addition to amounts made available under section 112 for such purposes, there are authorized to be appropriated, and there are appropriated, out of amounts in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $250,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2025 through 2034, to remain available until expended.

Except as otherwise provided in this section, out of the amounts appropriated under paragraph (1), the Secretary shall make allotments to each eligible State and territory in an amount equal to the sum of—

(A) $50,000; and

(B) an amount that bears the same relationship to any amounts appropriated under paragraph (1) that remain after all such States and territories have received $50,000, as the number of children under the age of 18 in the State or territory bears to the number of such children in all States and territories that apply for such a grant.

To be eligible to receive an allotment under paragraph (2), a State or territory shall demonstrate in its application for a grant under this section that such State or territory, for purposes of carrying out the programs supported by such grant, will expend the same amount, or more, of State or territory funds in the fiscal year for which the grant is awarded as such State or territory expended for such purposes in the previous fiscal year.

In this subsection, the terms State and territory have the meanings given such terms in subsection (f)(1).

Section 203 of the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (42 U.S.C. 5116b) is amended—

(A) in subsection (a), by striking amount appropriated under section 210 and inserting amounts appropriated under section 209 and subsection (d)(1); and

(B) by adding at the end the following:

To carry out this title, in addition to amounts made available under section 209 for such purposes, there are authorized to be appropriated, and there are appropriated, out of amounts in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $250,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2025 through 2034, to remain available until expended.

The Secretary shall allot the amount appropriated under paragraph (1) for a fiscal year and remaining after the reservation under subsection (a) among eligible States in the same manner the Secretary allots amounts appropriated under section 209 pursuant to subsection (b). For purposes of this paragraph, the allotment formula described in subsection (b) shall be applied substituting eligible State for State each place such term appears in such subsection, and substituting eligible States for States each place such term appears in such subsection.

For purposes of this paragraph, the term eligible State means a State that demonstrates in its application for a grant under section 204 that such State, for purposes of carrying out the programs supported by a grant under this title, will expend the same amount, or more, of State funds in the fiscal year for which the grant is awarded as such State expended for such purposes in the previous fiscal year.

Section 204(4) of the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (42 U.S.C. 5116d(4)) is amended by inserting (excluding any amount received under section 203(d)) after received under this title.
