Plain-English Summary

The proposal would expand mental health services and counseling available to students in schools, making it easier for young people to access support for depression, anxiety, and other mental health challenges. It would likely increase funding for school counselors and mental health professionals, helping schools hire more staff to meet student needs. Students and their families would benefit from having better access to mental health care during the school day without having to seek services elsewhere.
