Bill overview
This bill requires reporting of suicide attempts and deaths by first responders – including law enforcement officers, firefighters, and emergency medical personnel – to the Division of Mental Health Services. The data will be compiled into a confidential database and used to create an annual report for the Governor and the Legislature, providing aggregate demographic information about this issue within the first responder community. This aims to better understand and address the elevated risk of suicide among first responders.
