Revises law requiring certain student identification cards to contain telephone number for suicide prevention hotline.
This bill requires public schools (grades 7-12) and colleges to print mental health and suicide crisis resources on the back of student ID cards. It revises prior law by replacing the specific requirement to list the NJ Hopeline number with a flexible mandate for schools to include resources determined by education and human services officials. Schools may also add contact information for other services like the National Lifeline or campus crisis centers. The change applies immediately to the next school year following enactment.
