Introduced·5/21/25

Mental Health in Schools Excellence Program Act of 2025 aims to boost recruitment and retention of school-based mental health services providers.

The Mental Health in Schools Excellence Program Act of 2025 establishes a program to support graduate students in school-based mental health fields. The Secretary of Education will enter into agreements with eligible graduate institutions to cover a portion of the cost of attendance for participating students. These institutions may match the Secretary's contribution, up to 50 percent of the cost of attendance. The program prioritizes students who received a Federal Pell Grant or attended a Historically Black College or University.
