An act relating to expanded use of contingency management therapy and neurofeedback in Vermont’s health care and criminal justice systems

H.853 proposes expanding access to contingency management therapy (a behavioral treatment) and neurofeedback (a brain-training technique) within Vermont's health care and criminal justice systems. The bill would appropriate funds for existing programs using these methods, require studies on broader implementation, and create new pilot programs specifically for justice-involved individuals. This directly affects Vermont's health care providers, criminal justice agencies, and people involved with the justice system seeking recovery support.
