This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Health (DOH) to create and distribute educational materials about cardiomyopathy and related heart conditions that can cause sudden cardiac arrest in children and young adults. The materials will cover symptoms, risk factors, AED placement guidelines, CPR training, and emergency response plans for schools and families. The DOH must develop a public cardiomyopathy risk assessment tool and submit annual reports on the condition's prevalence and healthcare impact. The bill appropriates $300,000 from the state general fund to implement these provisions, targeting schools, healthcare providers, and families.
