- Adds emergency response providers to grant eligibility
Would make certain emergency response providers eligible institutions under the Public Health Service Act’s mental and behavioral health education and training grant program. The title does not identify which providers or describe other purposes.
Eligibility rules determine which institutions can take part in a grant program. Adding emergency response providers could extend the program’s reach to those providers, though the title does not specify the providers or describe the program’s existing eligibility rules.
