To provide requirements relating to education of students and young adults about unplannned pregnancy options
HB 4105 requires West Virginia public schools and universities to provide information about adoption as an option for unplanned pregnancy whenever contraception or sexually transmitted infection (STI) topics are taught or discussed. It mandates that educational institutions include current adoption practices and state resources for adoption support during health education that covers these subjects. The bill integrates adoption information into existing health curricula without creating new standalone programs, aligning with the state's health content standards. It takes effect July 1, 2026, and supersedes conflicting laws.
