The bill establishes a new mental health program for K-12 public school students in Wyoming, which will be administered by the Department of Education. This program aims to identify and support students facing mental health challenges, providing necessary referrals to appropriate services. The program is set to be implemented for a minimum of two school years, with funding available to all public school districts, which can choose whether to participate. Each participating district is required to report on expenditures, the number of students served, and the impact of the services provided. Additionally, schools must notify parents or guardians if their child is identified as needing services under this program.

To fund the program, the bill reappropriates up to five million dollars from the public school foundation program account and allocates an additional eight hundred five thousand dollars for the 2025-2026 school year. The funding will support the creation of community project manager and community support coordinator positions in participating districts, with specified salary limits. The bill also repeals a previous appropriation and mandates the Department of Education to report findings and recommendations regarding the program's effectiveness by August 1, 2026. The act is effective immediately upon completion of the necessary legislative processes.
