This bill reauthorizes a federal youth substance abuse prevention and recovery program that was created under the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act. The legislation extends funding for the program through fiscal year 2030 and increases funding levels annually, starting at $10 million in 2026 and rising to $15 million by 2030. The bill expands eligible grant recipients to include consortiums of local school districts and Indian Tribes, while broadening the program's focus to serve youth populations at increased risk for substance misuse. Additionally, the bill requires grant recipients to develop sustainability plans to maintain program activities after federal funding ends. The changes are primarily technical in nature, updating terminology and definitions while maintaining the core mission of preventing substance abuse and supporting recovery among young people.
