Establishes Behavioral Mental Health Advisory Board in Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services in DHS.

This bill establishes the Behavioral Mental Health Advisory Board within New Jersey's Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DHS). The 17-member board - including agency heads and appointed public members representing mental health organizations, medical groups, and patient advocates - will review all aspects of behavioral mental health services and make recommendations to improve access, coordination, funding, and program effectiveness. The board must submit annual reports to the Governor and Legislature, detailing findings and analyzing actions taken on prior recommendations. This advisory body directly affects how mental health services are evaluated and improved across New Jersey, ultimately impacting residents seeking behavioral health care.
