Rep. Lou Correa Leads House & Senate In Introducing Legislation To Address Suicide In Young Adults
Washington, DC – Today, Congressman Lou Correa (D-CA-46) reintroduced bipartisan legislation with Congressman Chris Stewart (R-UT-2) and Senators Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) and John Kennedy (R-LA). The bill, The Improving Mental Health Access for Students Act, will help address suicide amongst teens and young adults by increasing access to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline and Crisis Text Line.
Rep. Lou Correa said, “My legislation is straightforward too many of our young people are taking their own lives, and we must act. By adding crucial suicide prevention information to Student I.D.s and college websites, we can ensure at-risk students have options. I am grateful to my colleagues for stepping up and addressing suicide amongst our youth. Every young person deserves a future. We must do everything we can to ensure they get one.”

Now, more than at any point in my life, young people need helping hands and listening ears.
Those words were spoken by U.S. Senator John Kennedy on the Senate floor as he presented his Improving Mental Health Access for Students Act, which requires higher education institutions to print the contact information for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, Crisis Text Line and an on campus mental health program on the back of student ID cards or provide that information on the school s website. Mental health resources can be lifesaving, and college students deserve to know what help is available to them when they need it most, said Sen. Kennedy.
