Bill Sponsors: IL SB1165 | 2019-2020 | 101st General Assembly
Bill Title: Amends the Behavioral Health Workforce Education Center Task Force Act. Provides that the Behavioral Health Education Center Task Force must recognize that the behavioral health workforce is comprised of a broad range of professions providing prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation services for mental health conditions and substance use disorders. Provides that to address workforce capacity issues that impact access to care, the Task Force must engage in extensive planning and data collection. Provides that because there is no central data repository that exists for Illinois' behavioral health workforce, the Task Force must identify a data set, which is a foundational step to analyzing and providing recommendations to the concepts presented in House Bill 5111, as introduced, of the 100th General Assembly. Requires the Task Force to submit its findings and recommendations to the General Assembly on or before December 31, 2019 (rather than on or before September 28, 2018). Effective immediately.
