It sets up a national awareness and education program with a website, grants to train health care providers, and designated Centers of Excellence in menopause care. It authorizes $25 million per year for research and $10 million per year each for public health promotion, education, and training from fiscal years 2027 through 2031, and requires yearly reports to Congress.
