Protecting Kids from Fentanyl Act of 2025
This bill allows schools to use existing public health block grants to purchase naloxone (a medication that reverses opioid overdoses) and provide training for school staff on its use. It directly affects schools, teachers, nurses, administrators, and students by requiring the allocation of funds for naloxone kits, staff training, and fentanyl awareness education. Key provisions include adding specific grant uses for naloxone procurement, training school personnel in administration, and distributing fentanyl safety materials to students. The bill amends the Public Health Service Act to enable these concrete, preventative measures within educational settings.
