Mental health care shouldn’t require a crisis first.

The would let states fund early support BEFORE symptoms become severe.

Pennsylvania has built an integrated crisis response system to ensure people experiencing a mental health or substance use crisis can get help quickly — someone to call, someone to respond, and somewhere to go. The Governor’s 2026–27 budget strengthens that system with targeted investments to expand access, support frontline providers, and ensure reliable, around-the-clock crisis care in every corner of the Commonwealth.

The proposed budget includes $5 million to sustain walk-in crisis stabilization centers, prioritizing regions with limited access to immediate, in-person care and strengthening collaborations among hospitals, community providers, and local responders.
