                    Mental Health First Aid Act of 2016

          As passed by the House of Representatives on September 26, 2016


SUMMARY

H.R. 1877 would reauthorize and amend programs that provide grants for training on
mental illness awareness to teachers, emergency personnel, law enforcement and other
individuals. Assuming appropriation of the specified amounts, CBO estimates
implementing the bill would cost $62 million over the 2017-2021 period.

Pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply because enacting H.R. 1877 would not affect direct
spending or revenues. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 1877 would not increase net direct
spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in
2027.

H.R. 1877 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would impose no costs on state, local, or
tribal governments.
