Requires boards of education to adopt suicide prevention policies and DOE to establish model suicide prevention policy.

This bill requires New Jersey public school districts to adopt suicide prevention policies for students in grades K-12. School boards must develop these policies in consultation with mental health professionals and experts, ensuring they address prevention (identifying risk factors), intervention (responding to suicidal behavior), and postvention (support after suicide attempts or deaths). The New Jersey Department of Education must create and maintain a model policy to guide schools, which districts must review when developing their own. Schools must post the finalized policy online and notify parents and students of its availability. The policy must specifically address procedures for all three phases and recognize the needs of high-risk student groups.
