988 LGBTQ+ Youth Access Act of 2025

This bill changes the Public Health Service Act to require the federal Department of Health and Human Services to dedicate resources to supporting lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, or questioning (LGBTQ+) youth who contact the 988 suicide prevention hotline. This includes establishing, re-establishing, operating, and maintaining a specialized service known as the Press 3 option. The bill also requires the Secretary to set aside at least 9 percent of the hotline's yearly funding for these specialized services.
