CHU BILL TO INCREASE ACCESS TO MENTAL 
HEALTH CARE IN SCHOOLS

 
Last week,as part of Mental Health Awareness 
Month, Representative Judy Chu (CA-27) and 
Senator Jon Tester (D-MT) introduced H.R. 
2958, the Increasing Access to Mental Health in 
Schools Act. This legislation would establish a 
grant program to increase the number of mental 
health professionals at low income schools by 
supporting partnerships between institutions of 
higher education and local education agencies 
to support teaching, training, and employment 
of school counselors, social workers, and 
psychologists. Professionals that participate in 
these partnerships would be eligible for student 
loan forgiveness after 5 years of employment 
at a low income school. Rep. Chu, one of two 
psychologists in Congress, and Sen. Tester 
released the following statements: 

 “As one of only two psychologists in Congress, 
I know that mental healthcare is no less essential 
than our physical healthcare. And that’s why I 
have worked to encourage more people to take 
care of their mental health. And yet, far too 
many mental health problems go undiagnosed 
and untreated because our schools lack the 
funding and staff needed to spot and address 
a problem early on, “said Rep. Chu. “Our 
students deserve better. That is why I am proud 
to work with Senator Tester to introduce the 
Increasing Access to Mental Health in Schools 
Act. This legislation aims to put more qualified 
professionals in schools that wouldn’t otherwise 
be able to support them, and also encourages 
more people to enter psychology and counseling 
as a career by defraying some costs in exchange 
for their service to our communities. This is a 
smart bill. It helps students, school districts, 
and the mental health services professions. All 
while meeting an urgent need. I’m grateful for 
Senator Tester’s work to introduce this bill in the 
Senate and I hope to see it receive consideration 
in both chambers of Congress.”

 “In a rural state like Montana, our schools are 
often the first and only resources for kids with 
no other access to mental health care,” said Sen. 
Tester. “Providing schools with a way to hire 
more mental health care professionals will give 
kids the tools they need to be healthy, happy, 
and successful in the classroom.”
