What’s in it

This bill relates to suicide prevention hotline information on student identification cards. The bill directs the board of regents to require each institution of higher learning governed by the board that issues identification cards to students to include on each student identification card the three-digit number adopted by the department of human services that the student may call or text to obtain suicide prevention services. The bill makes a similar directive for school district boards of directors for students in grades through 12.

Read the full explanation

The bill strongly encourages the authorities in charge of each accredited nonpublic school to display on each identification card the school issues, if any, to students in grades six through twelve, the three-digit number adopted by the department of human services that the student may call or text to obtain suicide prevention services. The bill applies to the first school year beginning at least one year after the department of human services makes available to the public telephone and text services for suicide prevention services via a three-digit number and each succeeding school year.
