Ordered to inactive file at the request of Assembly Member Mark González.
Summary
The bill adds a new Government Code section directing the Health and Human Services Agency to check whether a federal LGBTQ+ 988 hotline exists. If not, the Office of Emergency Services must ask SAMHSA to enable a “press 3” (and “PRIDE” text) feature for California callers and secure the needed technology. A qualified LGBTQ+‑focused provider would then be contracted to run the specialized service, with strict privacy and staffing requirements.
