Summary
The bill lets the Department of Human Services draw from the statewide 9‑8‑8 Trust Fund to provide specialized suicide‑prevention and mental‑health crisis services for LGBTQ+ youth and young adults if the federal government discontinues, suspends, or limits those services. It safeguards LGBTQ+ young people who rely on dedicated call‑routing or specialized lines. The measure ensures continuity of care without waiting for new legislation or funding.
