Key Points

  • This bill creates a new grant program within the Department of Veterans Affairs to find better ways to treat veterans with long-term, mild brain injuries. It would provide up to $5 million per year to groups like universities and nonprofits to test new medical approaches.
  • The program focuses on finding treatments that do not rely only on pills. Instead, it encourages care that looks at the whole person to help improve mental health and reduce the risk of suicide among veterans who have had head injuries.
  • The plan would last for three years and has a total budget of $30 million. It aims to bridge the gap between traditional hospital care and new, innovative therapies that might work better for some people.
  • Organizations that get the funding must share their results with the government every year. This helps the VA decide which new treatments are actually working so they can eventually offer them to more veterans nationwide.
