## Summary

**A national Armenian Genocide education program.** This bill would direct the Library of Congress to create and support resources, teacher training, traveling exhibitions, and online materials to increase awareness of the Armenian Genocide, counter denial and distortion, and promote justice and prevention of future genocides. - Students and families: Encourages wider classroom access to age-appropriate lessons and digital resources so students learn the history, consequences, and ongoing effects of the Armenian Genocide. - Educators and schools: Funds professional development, workshops, and fellowships and prioritizes applicants that do not already offer Armenian Genocide education, while engaging state and local education leaders. - Library of Congress and partners: Establishes a dedicated LOC online resource section, supports traveling exhibitions and partnerships with local educational agencies and organizations, and allows private donations via a dedicated gift account. - Researchers and accountability: Requires program evaluation and annual reports to Congress starting in 2026 to measure effectiveness and guide improvements. *This bill would authorize $2.0 million per year for five years, totaling $10.0 million in authorized funding.*
