Bill overview
The Improving Mental Healthcare in the Re-Entry System Act of 2025 aims to improve mental health support for individuals entering and leaving the criminal justice system. It establishes a grant program to fund mental health screenings and referrals to healthcare providers for people in prisons, jails, and local detention centers. The program requires states and localities to hire mental health liaisons and conduct evaluations to measure the program’s impact on reducing crime and improving outcomes for formerly incarcerated individuals. The Bureau of Prisons is also required to implement a similar screening and referral program.
