action postponed indefinitely
Summary
The bill appropriates $1 million from the general fund for fiscal years 2027‑2028 to create a pilot program that gives kindergarten through 12th‑grade students and their families free access to an evidence‑based mental‑health platform offering education, self‑management tools, and care navigation. It directs the Public Education Department to contract for services, operate the pilot, and report its impact to the legislative education study committee. The measure seeks to improve student mental health support without charging families.
