AI Summary

This bill, the Improving Mental Health Access for Students Act, requires colleges and universities to include contact information for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, Crisis Text Line, and a campus mental health center on student identification cards. If an institution does not issue student IDs, it must publish this suicide prevention contact information on its website. The amendment takes effect one year after the bill's enactment, and the Secretary may designate a different organization to be included on the ID cards if one of the originally specified entities ceases to exist.
