Wisconsin GOP members are asking for mental health services to be expanded across to Wisconsin high schoolers.
The two-year pilot program would be launched in the 2026-2027 school year and would provide at least 50-thousand-students help through an online tool. It would provide behavioral health education resources, peer-to-peer support and access to private virtual sessions with licensed mental health professionals. A report by the Wisconsin Office of Children’s Mental Health found that only half of the state’s high school students felt like they belonged in the classroom.
