SB 191 North Carolina Senate · 2025-2026 Session

CFSS Gun Prsnt. for Grade 7 and 9 Students.

SB 191 requires North Carolina's Center for Safer Schools to create an interactive presentation about the legal, medical, and emotional consequences of gun use, substance abuse, and gun safety for students. It mandates all public school districts to provide this presentation to every 7th and 9th grader annually, with schools required to notify parents 14 days in advance and allow opt-outs. The bill allocates $900,000 in recurring funds for the Center to develop materials and train schools, effective for the 2026-2027 school year. This policy directly affects 7th and 9th grade students and school districts across North Carolina.
