Overview
This bill aims to expand access to mental health crisis support services in New Jersey. It will broaden the Early Intervention Support Services (EISS) program, currently operating in 11 counties, to provide a program in every county across the state. The program offers short-term, recovery-oriented crisis intervention and stabilization services, including medication, therapy, and case management, delivered outside of hospitals. The bill also mandates reporting and evaluation of the EISS programs to ensure their effectiveness and identify areas for improvement.
