Plain-English Summary

This bill would expand mental health services available to students in schools by increasing funding and resources for school counselors, psychologists, and mental health professionals. It aims to help students access support for issues like anxiety, depression, and stress without having to leave school or rely solely on outside providers. The changes would affect public schools and the students they serve, potentially making mental health care more available to young people who might otherwise go without treatment.
