HR-4080 : Still Just a Bill


The Trauma-Informed Care Task Force Reauthorization Act of 2023, also known as H.R. 4080, seeks to amend the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act. The primary goal of this bill is to extend the duration and expand the responsibilities of the task force dedicated to developing best practices for trauma-informed identification, referral, and support.

Key provisions of the bill include:

  • Extending the Task Force's Mandate: The bill allows the task force to continue its work, ensuring the ongoing development and refinement of trauma-informed care practices.
  • Expanding Reporting Requirements: H.R. 4080 mandates that the task force produce additional reports and updates to existing reports as needed, ensuring that its findings and recommendations remain current and relevant.
  • Removing Obsolete Provisions: The bill removes a subsection of the original act that is no longer relevant, streamlining the legislation.

In summary, H.R. 4080 aims to enhance and prolong the efforts to integrate trauma-informed care practices across various sectors by extending the life and duties of the relevant task force.
