Thanks to the Biden-Harris American Rescue Plan, twenty states are now providing these critical services

to individuals experiencing mental health or substance use disorders

“Expanding access to mental health and substance use care – especially for those in crisis – is a top priority for the Biden-Harris Administration,” said HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra. “I applaud New Hampshire for making mobile crisis care and other community-based supports available to its residents. I encourage more states to do the same. These resources save lives and improve health.”

Providing fast, appropriate care to someone in crisis may reduce the need for costly inpatient services, and this new option will help New Hampshire expand access to behavioral health professionals as the initial contact for someone in crisis.
