The EARLY Minds Act wants to help kids and teens with mental health by making sure states use some of their money to catch problems early and stop them from getting worse. It's like giving schools special tools to make sure everyone feels better and stays happy!

The EARLY Minds Act wants to help kids and teens feel happier by giving money to people who create smart plans to stop them from worrying too much or feeling sad. States can use some of this money, but they have to show how it's helping and tell the grown-ups in charge every two years.

The bill is like a big reminder for everyone in the country to help kids feel better when they're feeling sad or worried, especially because of the tough times during COVID-19. It says that schools, the government, and local groups should work together to make sure kids get the help they need to feel happy and healthy.
