| 1 | | principally provides services to children. |
| 2 | | (c) The Task Force shall meet to organize and select a |
| 3 | | chairperson from the non-governmental members of the Task Force |
| 4 | | upon appointment of a majority of the members. The chairperson |
| 5 | | shall be elected by a majority vote of the members of the Task |
| 6 | | Force. |
| 7 | | (d) The Task Force may consult with any persons or entities |
| 8 | | it deems necessary to carry out its purposes. |
| 9 | | (e) The members of the Task Force shall receive no |
| 10 | | compensation for serving as members of the Task Force. |
| 11 | | (f) The Task Force shall study the concepts presented in |
| 12 | | House Bill 5111, as introduced, of the 100th General Assembly. |
| 13 | | Additionally, the Task Force shall consider the fiscal means by |

| 15 | | implementation of the concepts presented in House Bill 5111, as |
| 16 | | introduced, of the 100th General Assembly. The Task Force must |
| 17 | | recognize that the behavioral health workforce is comprised of |
| 18 | | a broad range of professions providing prevention, treatment, |
| 19 | | and rehabilitation services for mental health conditions and |
| 20 | | substance use disorders. To address workforce capacity issues |
| 21 | | that impact access to care, the Task Force must engage in |
| 22 | | extensive planning and data collection. Because there is no |
| 23 | | central data repository that exists for Illinois' behavioral |
| 24 | | health workforce, the Task Force must identify a data set, |
| 25 | | which is a foundational step to analyzing and providing |
| 26 | | recommendations to the concepts presented in House Bill 5111, |

| 10 | | support and administrative assistance and support to the Task |
| 11 | | Force and shall be responsible for administering its operations |
