The bill would require the Department of Health and Human Services to create a public website and question-based portal with pregnancy-related information and resources. The portal would provide information based on a user’s needs and ZIP Code, and users could consent to follow-up by phone or email. The bill would also require the Maternal Mental Health Hotline to link to the website, offer 24-hour live chat, and support access in languages other than English. Resources connected to abortion services, as defined by the bill, could not be listed. The department would report to Congress on website use, user feedback, and service gaps.
If enacted, the bill would create a website and portal where pregnant women could look for listed services such as health care, counseling, financial assistance, housing, childcare, and adoption or foster care resources. Users could choose to share contact information and request follow-up. States could receive grants to help gather and organize resources.
The bill does not specify a funding amount. It allows the Secretary of Health and Human Services to provide grants to states.
