In last year’s National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), Elfreth specifically secured a provision, H.R. 6630, the Expanding Mental Health Access for Cyber Command Personnel Act (Sec. 1506), requiring U.S. Cyber Command and the Cyber Mission Force to hire mental health professionals with security clearances at each of their operating locations. The amendment also requires quarterly briefings on the status of the initiative, validating the clearances, challenges carrying out the initiative, and efforts to improve awareness among troops regarding the cleared physicians. The $11 million in funding would ensure full funding of this provision.

FORT GEORGE G. MEADE, Md.- U.S. Cyber Command's military workforce now has access to on-site licensed mental health professionals thanks to a partnership with Fort Meade’s Kimbrough Ambulatory Care Center. The new service was unveiled during an open house on May 11, where the command surgeon and command psychologist, as well as consulting and clinical care providers, presented available and upcoming resources.
Assessments
The verified commitment establishes that Elfreth said she was continuing to work with U.S. Cyber Command to bring additional mental health resources to Fort Meade. Verified evidence shows U.S. Cyber Command personnel later gained access to on-site licensed mental health professionals through a partnership with Kimbrough Ambulatory Care Center, which is consistent with the promised outcome. However, the verified outcome passage does not document Elfreth writing, sponsoring, funding, securing, or otherwise materially contributing to that specific delivered service. Because delivery or partial credit requires verified material candidate contribution, the outcome remains unresolved rather than delivered or partial.
