Plain-English Summary
This bill would require or encourage schools to stock naloxone (a medication that reverses opioid overdoses) and train staff to use it, similar to how schools keep defibrillators on hand for heart emergencies. The goal is to help schools respond quickly if a student or staff member experiences an opioid overdose, potentially saving lives before emergency responders arrive. Schools, students, and families would be the main groups affected by this policy.
