## Summary

**This bill would create a national outreach and education strategy** and require data-driven reviews to improve behavioral health for Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) communities. It focuses on culturally and language-appropriate materials, annual public reporting, and separate reviews of AANHPI youth mental health and the behavioral‑health workforce. - Families and communities: Funds a culturally and language-tailored outreach campaign to reduce stigma and point people to evidence-based care. It authorizes $3.0 million per year for FY2026–2030 to carry out the outreach strategy. - AANHPI youth: Requires a systematic review of youth behavioral health, including prevalence, risk factors, suicide and overdose data, treatment rates, and root causes, with data disaggregated by race, age, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, region, and disability. A public report with barriers and recommended legislative or administrative actions is due within one year and is authorized $1.5 million for FY2026. - Behavioral-health workforce: Directs a review to count AANHPI behavioral health workers, document licensure, location, languages, training barriers, and participation in federal programs, with recommendations to boost recruitment and training. That review is due within one year and is authorized $1.5 million for FY2026. *This bill would authorize $3.0 million per year for FY2026–2030 for outreach plus $1.5 million each for the two 2026 reviews, increasing federal spending by about $18.0 million over 2026–2030.*
