Requires schools to put mental health help on student IDs and websites for secondary students.
This bill, called the RAYS Act, would require schools that get federal money to print mental health and suicide prevention hotline numbers on secondary student ID cards. If schools don't issue IDs, they would have to put this information on their websites and student computer platforms. This aims to give secondary school students easy access to help, taking effect one year after the bill becomes law.
Today, schools are not required to put mental health and suicide prevention information on student IDs or school websites. If this bill passes, schools receiving federal funds would be required to include contact information for crisis hotlines on secondary student ID cards or, if no IDs are issued, on their public websites and student computer platforms. This change would take effect one year after the bill becomes law for ID cards, and 60 days after that for websites.
