Interactive Dashboard for Mental Health and Substance Use Grant Funding
This Act mandates the creation of an interactive online platform to increase transparency and improve access to information about federal grants for mental health and substance use disorder programs. This tool will help local organizations, schools, and healthcare facilities more easily find and apply for funds to expand support services. Citizens will potentially gain better access to treatment and prevention services in their communities.
Key points
Establishment of a public, easily accessible online dashboard listing all federal grant programs related to mental health and substance use.
The platform will display the application status (open, closed, awarded) for each program, helping potential applicants identify funding opportunities.
Increased funding transparency aims to improve the quality and availability of mental health services in communities, including schools and care facilities.
