Kristi Noem focused on mental health Friday on a visit to Pine Ridge and vowed support for renewing a federal suicide prevention program slated to shut down in December.\r\nNome traveled with Rep. Tim Murphy of Pennsylvania who is the only child psychologist serving in congress. Murphy is working on mental health legislation and Noem wanted to show him the needs on a reservation wracked by a wave of youth suicides.\r\nThe GOP lawmakers met with students, health officials and tribal leaders.\r\nWhat we heard was that we have to have to do some things on the federal level to make sure there are more workforce providers that are trained in psychology and psychiatry and social work, said Murphy. This area is in crisis and in emergency mode this is an area we have to drive things home.\r\nAfter the meetings Noem says she hoped the federally funded Sweet Grass Suicide Prevention Project , which will run out of funding next month, continues.\r\nI'm going to go back to Washington to advocate and make sure that (program) can get extended and funded for the future and then and see if we can make our other grants more flexible to operate like that one does. Said Noem.\r\nAlso attending the meetings was Ron Cornelius from the Indian Health Service. He talked about a behavioral health center I.H.S. plans to build in Rapid City.\r\nHe agreed to return to Pine Ridge next month to discuss an idea of also building a smaller facility on the reservation.", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["http://noem.house.gov/index.cfm/in-the-news?ContentRecord_id=53880D4B-E945-4087-97B7-8BAD4D0D0C80"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.2127968948334455, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
