Federal Mental Health Services

Federal mental health services are programs and resources provided by the U.S. government to support mental wellbeing across the country. They include funding, research, and policy development to improve access to mental health care, expand treatment options, and promote mental health awareness. Agencies like the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) work to strengthen mental health systems, reduce stigma, and ensure federal support reaches communities in need. These services aim to improve overall mental health, prevent mental health crises, and ensure individuals receive appropriate care regardless of their geographic or economic circumstances.
