Idaho Bills

Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding membership of the State Behavioral Health Planning Council and the Regional Behavioral Health Board.

The intent of this legislation is to add definitions for peer support specialist and family support partner to support implementation of community family support and recovery support supportive service as defined in section 39-3135(7e), Idaho Code to remove language in section 39-3134, Idaho Code related to initial appointment of Regional Behavioral Health Board members that is no longer needed now that boards have been established and add language to membership sections of the State planning Council and Regional Boards to include representation from the field of prevention.
