The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 1068, aims to enhance children's mental health care in Connecticut by establishing dedicated mental health and wellness facilities across 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 growing need for comprehensive mental health resources for children.

The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new provisions to ensure that children have access to essential mental health services. The overarching goal is to improve the mental health and wellness of children in Connecticut, reflecting a commitment to better support their needs and well-being.
