2 months ago by Bonesince1997 to c/pennsylvania
The budget includes $10 million in the first dedicated state funding for 988, the National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, following three consecutive years of state investments in student and community mental health.
It also provides $5 million for walk-in behavioral health crisis stabilization centers, with priority given to communities that have limited access to immediate in-person care.
