Public Content The Legislature passed Senate Bill 7026 during the 2018 legislative session, which in part provides funding for a new categorical allocation entitled the “Mental Health Assistance Allocation”. This allocation is to provide funds to school districts and charter schools to assist in establishing or expanding school-based mental health care in coordination with mental health providers to help address the mental health crisis affecting young people in Florida. Bill requires school districts to establish school based mental health plans including public awareness programs, crisis intervention teams and a referral process for students to get more intensive services. Primary focus is to address issues such as opioid addiction, youth suicide, and bullying. As part of this newly enacted legislation, the District is required to develop a Mental Health Care plan which will require the hiring of personnel skilled in the area of mental health services and awareness. In order to be in compliance, the District will have to implement the Mental Health plan within a compressed time frame. As a result, the District is requesting approval of the proposed budget to facilitate advertising, interviewing and hiring the most qualified personnel available within the job market. All districts throughout the State of Florida are dealing with the same issues and constraints which will most likely create a applicant pool shortfall.
