Psychotropic Medication Committee
The Psychotropic Medication Committee was established by LB821 (2012) and codified at Neb. Rev. Stat. ยง43-4203(2)(a) to examine state policy regarding the psychotropic drugs prescribed for children who are wards of the state and administration of such drugs to such children.
The Committee recommended a framework of policies and procedures for children receiving psychotropic medications in the Commission’s 2012 Phase I Strategic Plan (available below), and was authorized by the Commission in 2014 to provide guidance to research and assess practices for prescribing psychotropic medications to children and adolescents living in Nebraska.
