AN ACT ESTABLISHING AN ELECTRONIC BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PREVENTION AND TREATMENT TOOL PILOT PROGRAM IN SCHOOLS.

SB 565 establishes a temporary pilot program in schools to test digital tools for preventing and treating student behavioral health issues. The program would provide schools with electronic platforms to support students' mental wellness through early intervention and access to resources. It directly affects public schools participating in the pilot, including students, teachers, and school staff. The bill requires the state to create and manage this pilot initiative but does not mandate permanent implementation or specify funding details. The program is limited to a trial period to evaluate effectiveness before potential expansion.
