Failed·4/17/26
Introduced Text

Establishes a Youth Early Intervention and Support Act to identify and support students with early warning indicators of trauma or instability.

The Youth Early Intervention and Support Act aims to create a collaborative early support system in Nebraska public schools. The system identifies students showing early warning indicators such as attendance issues, behavioral challenges, or exposure to adverse childhood experiences. Each school district must form a youth support coordination team, including school counselors, teachers, community health workers, and parents. The goal is to provide compassionate, trauma-informed interventions without punitive measures.
