Not true. IIRC, a provision of NCLB (Illinois Children’s Mental Health Act of 2003) allows schools to asses the mental health of studenrs...and that of course would carry over into adulthood. IIRC, a BUSH mental health intiative was to get shrinks to asses kids into preschool (Head Start)...

Yeah, true and not true, depends on the actual, on-the-street use of the law and other things.

I've retired and not keeping up all the new laws, and some you mentioned did not become law. And, there is new front in the MH-legal area where the state wants to raise children while they remain in the physical custody of their parents.

So far, there is nothing in any of these laws regarding the reporting to law enforcement of an adult who may or may not shoot nameless people. And the Tarasoff law prevails upon the practioner---who is required as part of licensure to read, know, pass a test on and honor the laws governing conduct of a practioner---to do the utmost to NOT reveal unless there was a specific threat of harm to a specific, named individual.
