Summary

The bill establishes a new program that lets eligible adults with serious mental illness receive home‑based and community supports instead of being placed in a psychiatric facility. It sets eligibility, income limits, and requires the state health‑care cost‑containment system to seek federal approval and involve stakeholders. The goal is to improve medication safety, reduce hospitalizations, and provide structured community living options.
