    Justification: In fiscal year 2022, Congress provided additional 
funding for the PMHCA program and expanded the allowable activities for 
PMHCA programs to include support for hospital emergency departments to 
address the growing behavioral health needs among children and 
adolescents. This supplemental funding to the existing Emergency 
Medical Services for Children Innovation and Improvement Center 
recipient will support continued expansion of PMHCA programs in 
providing training and tele-consult support to providers in emergency 
departments and other settings, consistent with the additional 
authority enacted by Congress.

Carole Johnson,
Administrator.
