Mental Health Improvement Act
This bill amends Section 756(f) of the Public Health Service Act to extend the funding period for mental health education and training grants from fiscal years 2023-2027 to 2024-2028. It directly affects state and local health agencies receiving these federal grants, which support mental and behavioral health workforce development. The key change is simply adjusting the grant program's authorization timeline by one year, with no new funding or policy requirements added. This is a procedural update to existing grant provisions.
