New grant years for mental health training
This bill would shift the authorized years for mental and behavioral health training grants. It would replace fiscal years 2023 through 2027 with fiscal years 2026 through 2030. The change would take effect upon enactment. It would not provide money by itself; Congress would still have to appropriate funds. Schools and training programs could seek grants in those years if Congress funds them.
