Creates a Youth Mental Health Research Initiative at the National Institutes of Health, led by the National Institute of Mental Health with two other NIH institutes. It will coordinate and support research focused on youth resilience and on improving how mental health interventions are targeted and delivered.
Authorizes $100 million per year for fiscal years 2025–2030 to carry out the initiative. The goal is to strengthen the evidence base for practical, effective mental health approaches for children and adolescents and to better align NIH efforts across institutes.
