Senators are rolling out a sweeping legislative package to fix broken insurance systems, crush appointment delays, and expand school-based mental health services—with Governor Sherrill’s office backing budget proposals to fund more staff and improve inter-agency coordination. Families are already forced to send kids out of state for treatment, highlighting a crisis that’s not just bureaucratic but deeply damaging to children’s futures. First bills hit the floor next week—aiming to make mental health care timely, accessible, and effective for every New Jersey kid.
