To the editor:
I testified on House Bill 1468 on March 29 , and it passed out of the Senate committee unanimously, so weâre three for three, and itâs on to the Senate floor next. I hope it is close to being a done deal.
The focus of HB 1468 is coordinating behavioral health crisis response (basically a combination of effective prevention and intervention efforts) and transitioning the National Suicide Prevention Lifelineâs 800 number to a new three-digit number, 988.
The other piece of legislation Iâm watching is SB 19, which involves imprinting or affixing a sticker with the Suicide Prevention Lifeline number (988) to student IDs for grades 6â12 starting with the 2022â2023 school year. That has moved over to the House and been assigned to the House Education Committee, but has not yet been heard.
