AB 60 Nevada Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Revises provisions relating to certain behavioral health services. (BDR 39-434)

AB 60 updates Nevada's rules for behavioral health professionals. It requires certification for individuals claiming to be "certified prevention specialists" and prohibits minors from providing or supervising peer recovery support services (except as interns aged 16+ under specific conditions). The bill also mandates substance use disorder prevention coalitions to employ certified prevention specialists and authorizes civil penalties for violations like unlicensed practice or minor misconduct. These changes directly affect behavioral health workers, minors in recovery programs, and prevention coalitions, focusing on professional standards and safety protections.
