We're working to bridge the gap in mental health and substance use services for rural communities and those in farming, fishing, and forestry by proposing a grant program for home-based telemental health care. This legislation aims to enhance access to critical mental health support by leveraging technology, ensuring that underserved populations can receive care from the comfort of their own homes.
