Rep Thompson
This legislation is attempting to improve access to mental health services especially for clients from marginalized communities in the US.
S-2125″CounselingNotCriminalization In schools Act”
Rep. Ayanna Presley
The S-2125 legislation is generated due to the many instances in which students in public schools in the US are treated with suspensions and other punitive measurements when what they really need is more access to mental health services.
