This bill establishes specific qualifications for hiring marriage and family therapists in the Veterans Health Administration, the healthcare system that serves military veterans. The legislation requires that therapists who provide clinical supervision must either be authorized to supervise in their state or be designated as an approved supervisor by the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy. The bill affects the VA's ability to recruit and employ qualified mental health professionals to work with veterans and to train other therapists within the organization. No specific funding amounts or implementation timelines are outlined in the legislation. The bill was introduced in April 2024 and referred to the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs for consideration.
