This bill amends federal juvenile justice law to raise the minimum age for federal juvenile delinquency proceedings from 15 to 16, and modifies transfer standards for prosecuting juveniles as adults by requiring consideration of trauma history, rehabilitative potential, and the child's best interest. It also amends murder statutes to limit liability for juveniles under 18 to cases where they intentionally caused death or intentionally aided an actual killer. Additionally, the bill requires the Bureau of Justice Statistics to publish annual data on federally adjudicated and incarcerated children, and authorizes grants to states for collaboration between child welfare and juvenile justice systems to serve vulnerable youth including those in foster care, survivors of exploitation, and crossover youth.
