house 03/11/2025 - 119th Congress
We're working to establish a grant program aimed at integrating self-harm and suicide prevention services into primary care offices, ensuring timely identification and support for individuals at risk. By providing funding for additional clinical social workers and standardizing screening practices, we aim to enhance early intervention and referrals, ultimately reducing the incidence of self-harm and suicide.

Another costly government program. Can't we streamline existing resources first?

H.R. 2044 sounds noble, but how about involving private sectors to optimize this funding?

Kudos for addressing mental health, but limiting to 10 grants could leave many underserved.

H.R. 2044 is a lifeline for those struggling silently. We need more care, not less.

While H.R. 2044 shows promise, it might be a drop in the ocean if access to care isn't expanded.

Why fund new positions when we should be cutting red tape for existing healthcare providers?

Preventing suicide shouldn't be an elective. It's about time our primary care system steps up.

A step toward integrating mental health and primary care, but let's ensure these grants reach the places that need it most.
