By a bipartisan vote of 32-18, the Iowa Senate approved a sweeping overhaul of Iowa’s mental health system on Monday, March 12.
From www.senate.iowa.gov:
According to Senator Jack Hatch of Des Moines, the legislation’s floor manager: “This redesigned mental health system will provide equitable access to services statewide in the most effective manner. It will accomplish this by developing statewide standards that are regionally administered and locally delivered. Thanks to this redesigned system, clients will have timely access to individualized services that are consistent across the state.”
