Summary

Healthy Transition Act of 2009 - Amends the Public Health Service Act to require the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to award grants or cooperative agreements to states: (1) to develop plans for the statewide coordination of services to assist adolescents and young adults with a serious mental health disorder in acquiring the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary to ensure their healthy transition to successful adult roles and responsibilities; and (2) for the coordination of such services.
