Bill > HR5040

This bill requires each Secretary of a military department to conduct a comprehensive review and update of online information related to suicide prevention and behavioral health resources by August 1, 2027. Specifically, the Secretaries must examine all suicide prevention and mental health information published on military installation websites, ensure the contact information and resources are current and accurate, and then submit a certification to congressional defense committees (which are the congressional committees responsible for overseeing military and defense matters) confirming the information's accuracy. The bill, known as the Accurate Mental Health Resources for Our Servicemembers Act of 2025, aims to improve the accessibility and reliability of mental health information for military personnel by mandating regular reviews and updates of online resources. By setting a clear deadline and requiring official certification, the legislation seeks to ensure that servicemembers have access to the most up-to-date and helpful mental health support information available through their respective military department websites.
