House Bill No. 574, introduced by Representative Spell, amends the membership composition of the Mental Health Advocacy Service board of trustees in Louisiana. The bill specifies that the board will consist of nine members, including the deans or designated faculty members from law schools at Loyola University, Southern University, Louisiana State University, and Tulane University. Additionally, it includes the president of the Louisiana Mental Health Association or their representative, along with a selected member from the Louisiana State Medical Society and the Louisiana State Bar Association.

The bill also updates the names of certain organizations within the board's membership. Specifically, it changes the name of the "Mental Health Association of Louisiana" to the "Louisiana Mental Health Association" and the "Louisiana Medical Society" to the "Louisiana State Medical Society." These changes aim to reflect the current naming conventions of these organizations while maintaining the structure and function of the board.
