The SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Reauthorization Act of 2025 was signed into law. This legislation renews funding for programs that address the prevention of, treatment for, and recovery from substance use disorder and mental health conditions.
Additionally, the bill expands support resources for first responders and employment services for people in recovery, as well as temporarily permits a regional technician assistance center to help with the National Peer-Run Training and Technical Assistance Center for Addiction Recovery Support.
The act also requires the United States Department of Health and Human Services to strengthen the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline program against cybersecurity threats, institute a Federal Interagency Work Group on Fentanyl Contamination of Illegal Drugs, and review the scheduling of approved products that contain buprenorphine and naloxone.
