Coordinator of Mental Health Accessibility; eliminate that position within DFA.
HB 423 repeals Mississippi law creating the "Coordinator of Mental Health Accessibility" position within the Department of Finance and Administration (DFA). The bill eliminates this specific role, including its duties, qualifications, and funding requirements as outlined in existing statutes. This change directly affects the DFA's organizational structure by removing a dedicated mental health coordination position. The bill does not create new programs or alter mental health services; it solely removes an existing administrative role. The repeal takes effect upon the bill's passage.
