Modifies provisions relating to critical incident management

Summary

The bill establishes a department‑run program that provides counseling, risk assessment and other services to help police and other first responders cope with trauma from critical incidents. It requires each officer or responder to have a mental‑health check‑in every three to five years, which can be satisfied by the department’s program, and mandates notification of their commanding officer. A dedicated state fund is created to finance these services.
