AI Summary

This bill provides a targeted appropriation of $250,000 for each of fiscal years 2026 and 2027 to support mental health services for students at Minnesota State Colleges and Universities (MnSCU) campuses. Specifically, the bill allocates funding to the Board of Trustees of MnSCU to contract with independent mental health organizations to provide on-campus mental health services at up to five state colleges. The appropriation will come from the state's general fund, and the goal is to enhance accessible mental health support for students. By focusing on contracting with independent organizations, the bill aims to bring specialized mental health expertise directly to college campuses, potentially addressing growing concerns about student mental health and well-being in higher education settings.
