As I posted elsewhere:
Unfortunately, this sounds like it is a feel-good measure which will likely have little effect unless further action is taken. The two professionals quoted in the OP's link called these actions "very disappointing" and "pathetic" because of how little impact they actually have. Additionally, this comes just after the new budget cuts funding for the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, the agency within the Department of Health and Human Services by $400million.
(The professionals quoted were in NPR's article on this issue)
