GRANTS FOR SERVICES FOR SEVERELY MENTALLY DISTURBED CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS

SEC. 203. (a) The Secretary may make grants to any State mental health authority, community mental health center, or other public or nonprofit private entity for the provision of mental health and related support services for severely mentally disturbed children and adolescents and for members of their families. The services which may be provided under a grant under this subsection shall include at least one of the following: (1) The identification and assessment of the needs of severely mentally disturbed children and adolescents and the provision of needed mental health and related support services which are not provided by existing programs. (2) Assuring the availability of appropriate personnel to be responsible for providing, or arranging for the provision of, the needed mental health and related support services for such children and adolescents. (3) The provision of auxiliary mental health services under the Education for all Handicapped Children Act of 1975 to such children and adolescents who are handicapped. (4) The establishment of cooperative arrangements with juvenile justice authorities, educational authorities, and other authorities and agencies that come in contact with such children and adolescents to ensure referral of such children and adolescents for appropriate mental health and related support services. A grant made under this subsection for a project in a mental health service area served by a community mental health center may be made only to the community mental health center or to the State mental health authority of the State in which the area is located, except that, if the Secretary finds that because of exceptional circumstances in the mental health service area the severely mentally disturbed children and adolescents in the area would otherwise be underserved, a grant may be made to any other public or private nonprofit entity. (b) The Secretary may make grants to any public entity for projects to coordinate the provision of mental health and related support services to severely mentally disturbed children and adolescents with the activities of community agencies and State agencies and with the provision of services available to such children and adolescents under titles IV, V, XVI, XIX, and XX of the Social Security Act and under the Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975, the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and other Federal and State statutes.
