A Resolution supporting the bipartisan Federal Veterans Traumatic Brain Injury Adaptive Care Opportunities Nationwide Act of 2025 and urging the Congress of the United States to pass the measure to expand and improve care for Pennsylvania veterans with chronic mild traumatic brain injury, including through innovative neurorehabilitation strategies that promote mental health and prevent suicide.
This Senate Resolution supports a federal bill that would create a three-year grant program to fund research and development of new treatments for veterans with chronic mild traumatic brain injury. The proposed grants would support academic institutions, healthcare providers, and community organizations in testing non-drug interventions, conducting clinical trials, training clinicians, and building partnerships to scale effective care strategies. The measure specifically aims to address mental health needs and suicide prevention among veterans, with Pennsylvania institutions encouraged to participate in the program. The resolution urges Congress to pass the federal legislation and calls for ongoing collaboration between state and federal officials to monitor and improve outcomes for veterans.
