The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 1068, aims to enhance children's mental health care in Connecticut by establishing mental health and wellness facilities across the western, central, and eastern regions of the state. These facilities will provide a range of services, including acute inpatient care, outpatient daily care, educational support, and family support services, thereby addressing the mental health needs of children more effectively.

The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new provisions to create these facilities, reflecting a commitment to improving mental health resources for children in Connecticut. The overarching goal is to ensure that children have access to comprehensive mental health care and support, ultimately fostering better mental wellness outcomes for the youth in the state.
