EAGLES Act of 2025

The EAGLES Act of 2025 reauthorizes and expands the National Threat Assessment Center (NTAC) within the U.S. Secret Service to prevent targeted violence, particularly in schools. It mandates the Center to provide training, research, and consultation on behavioral threat assessment to schools, law enforcement, mental health professionals, and community organizations, with a specific focus on school violence prevention. The bill requires hiring additional staff with expertise in child psychology and school threat assessment, authorizes $10 million annually for 2026-2030, and demands annual reports to Congress on training reach and effectiveness. This directly affects schools, local agencies, and community stakeholders by offering evidence-based tools to identify and address concerning behaviors before violence occurs.
