Higher education institutions in the Commonwealth have worked tirelessly to provide mental health services to students and face uphill battles on both the quantitative and qualitative fronts to attract and retain a mental health care workforce on campus. In 2022, the Virginia General Assembly responded to this specific workforce need and appropriated funds to support a mental health workforce pilot at institutions of higher education.
The pilot has been continued at current funding levels for FY 2025 and FY 2026. The State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV), in consultation with the Virginia Health Care Foundation (VHCF), is charged with administering this pilot program.

Read articleFederal appropriators added $15 billion in new Pell Grant funding to the FY 2026 appropriations package on top of the standard appropriation level — a response to a structural shortfall that CBO scored at $5.4 billion in FY 2026 and $11.5 billion in FY 2027. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget projects a cumulative gap of $61 billion to $97 billion through 2035 even after the one-time fix. Meanwhile, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act expanded eligibility to short-term Workforce Pell programs, adding $2 to $6 billion in new costs. The Pell program is the foundation of need-based federal student aid, but the structural mismatch between rising costs and appropriations is a permanent feature now. Here is what that means for institutions, foundations, and state higher-ed agencies.
