home; community-based services; mental illness

Summary

The bill establishes a new state‑run program that lets qualifying adults with serious mental illness receive home‑based care and community supports instead of being placed in a psychiatric facility. It sets eligibility rules, defines a list of services, caps enrollment at 500 participants, and requires the state to seek federal Medicaid approval. The goal is to improve medication safety, housing stability, and reduce costly hospital or jail stays.
