TITLE XV—KEEPING CHILDREN 
SAFE FROM FAMILY VIOLENCE 
SEC. 1501. SHORT TITLE. 
This title may be cited as the ‘‘Keeping Children Safe 
From Family Violence Act’’ or ‘‘Kayden’s Law’’. 
SEC. 1502. FINDINGS. 
Congress finds the following: 
(1) Approximately 1 in 15 children is exposed to 
domestic violence each year. 
(2) Most child abuse is perpetrated in the family 
and by a parent. Intimate partner violence and child 
abuse overlap in the same families at rates between 
30 and 60 percent. A child’s risk of abuse increases
2240 
after a perpetrator of intimate partner violence sepa-
rates from a domestic partner, even when the perpe-
trator has not previously directly abused the child. 
Children who have witnessed intimate partner vio-
lence are approximately 4 times more likely to experi-
ence direct child maltreatment than children who 
have not witnessed intimate partner violence. 
(3) More than 75 percent of child sexual abuse 
is perpetrated by a family member or a person known 
to the child. Data of the Department of Justice shows 
that family members are 49 percent, or almost half, 
of the perpetrators of crimes against child sex assault 
victims younger than 6 years of age. 
(4) Research suggests a child’s exposure to a 
batterer is among the strongest indicators of risk of 
incest victimization. One study found that female 
children with fathers who are batterers of their moth-
ers were 6.5 times more likely to experience father- 
daughter incest than female children who do not have 
abusive fathers. 
(5) Child abuse is a major public health issue in 
the United States. Total lifetime financial costs asso-
ciated with just 1 year of confirmed cases of child 
maltreatment, including child physical abuse, sexual 
abuse, psychological abuse, and neglect, result in
2241 
$124,000,000,000 in annual costs to the economy of 
the United States, or approximately 1 percent of the 
gross domestic product of the United States. 
(6) Empirical research indicates that courts reg-
ularly discount allegations of child physical and sex-
ual abuse when those allegations are raised in child 
custody cases. Courts believed less than 1⁄4 of claims 
that a father has committed child physical or sexual 
abuse. With respect to cases in which an allegedly 
abusive parent claimed the mother ‘‘alienated’’ the 
child, courts believed only 1 out of 51 claims of sexual 
molestation by a father. Independent research indi-
cates that child sexual abuse allegations are credible 
between 50 and 70 percent of the time. 
(7) Empirical research shows that alleged or 
known abusive parents are often granted custody or 
unprotected parenting time by courts. Approximately 
1⁄3 of parents alleged to have committed child abuse 
took primary custody from the protective parent re-
porting the abuse, placing children at ongoing risk. 
(8) Researchers have documented nearly 800 
child murders in the United States since 2008 com-
mitted by a divorcing or separating parent. More 
than 100 of these child murders are known to have oc-
curred after a court ordered the child to have contact
2242 
with the dangerous parent over the objection of a safe 
parent or caregiver. 
(9) Scientifically unsound theories that treat 
abuse allegations of mothers as likely false attempts to 
undermine fathers are frequently applied in family 
court to minimize or deny reports of abuse of parents 
and children. Many experts who testify against abuse 
allegations lack expertise in the relevant type of al-
leged abuse, relying instead on unsound and 
unproven theories. 
(10) Judges presiding over custody cases involv-
ing allegations of child abuse, child sexual abuse, and 
domestic violence are rarely required to receive train-
ing on these subjects, and most States have not estab-
lished standards for such training. 
SEC. 1503. PURPOSES. 
The purposes of this title are to— 
(1) increase the priority given to child safety in 
any State court divorce, separation, visitation, pater-
nity, child support, civil protection order, or family 
custody court proceeding affecting the custody and 
care of children, excluding child protective, abuse, or 
neglect proceedings and juvenile justice proceedings; 
(2) strengthen the abilities of courts to—
2243 
(A) recognize and adjudicate domestic vio-
lence and child abuse allegations based on valid, 
admissible evidence; and 
(B) enter orders that protect and minimize 
the risk of harm to children; and 
(3) ensure that professional personnel involved in 
cases containing domestic violence or child abuse alle-
gations receive trauma-informed and culturally ap-
propriate training on the dynamics, signs, and im-
pact of domestic violence and child abuse, including 
child sexual abuse. 
SEC. 1504. INCREASED FUNDING FOR STOP GRANTS.
