AI Summary

This bill would require, subject to available funding, the Mental Health Services Oversight and Accountability Commission to establish one or more technical assistance centers to support counties in addressing mental health issues of statewide concern, as determined by the commission. The bill would require the commission to establish which mental health issues are of statewide concern with stakeholder input, including reducing the seven negative outcomes of untreated mental illness identified in the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA). The costs incurred would be paid using funds allocated to the commission from the MHSA Mental Health Services Fund. The bill states that this change is consistent with and furthers the intent of the MHSA.
