The bill would create a Youth Mental Health Research Initiative at the National Institutes of Health. It would coordinate research among national institutes and centers, including studies on youth resilience, identifying and caring for youth at risk or in crisis, and improving how mental health support is targeted and delivered in clinical and community settings.
The initiative would focus on research and coordination, not directly provide mental health services. The bill names settings where youth live, play, work, and learn as places for research on delivering interventions.
The bill would authorize $100 million for each fiscal year from 2025 through 2030. This is an authorization of appropriations; the text does not state how much would ultimately be appropriated or spent.
