Expanding Student Access to Mental Health Services Act
This bill amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act to expand how existing federal funds can support student mental health. It allows states and schools to use funds for specific activities, including telehealth services, mental health first aid training, emergency response planning, and partnerships with local health agencies. The changes apply directly to public K-12 schools receiving ESEA funds, enabling them to coordinate mental health services more effectively. The bill does not create new funding but redirects existing resources toward these mental health support mechanisms.
