Behavioral Threat Assessment Program; require State Department of Education and Department of Mental Health to establish.

HB 1132 would have required Mississippi public schools to establish multidisciplinary threat assessment teams (including mental health professionals, staff, and administrators) to identify and address students exhibiting concerning behavior. The bill mandated using evidence-based methods like the Comprehensive School Threat Assessment Guidelines (CSTAG) to assess risks and develop interventions, with training provided by the Mississippi Office of Homeland Security. It also required school districts to collaborate with law enforcement, implement parental notification policies, and protect confidentiality of assessment records. However, the bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and never became law.
