AN ACT ESTABLISHING A TASK FORCE TO STUDY MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH.

HB 6590 establishes a state task force to study maternal mental health, focusing specifically on expanding access to mental health services and improving education about maternal mental health issues. The task force will examine strategies to better support mothers and birthing people within the state. This bill does not create new programs or funding but directs the task force to analyze current challenges and potential solutions. It directly affects mothers and birthing people by targeting gaps in mental health resources and awareness. The task force will report findings to the legislature, with no immediate policy changes enacted by this bill.
