Is your child's school prepared?
An overdose emergency can happen anywhere — including at school. Knowing what to ask now can help make sure your child's school is ready to respond when every minute matters.
Read the 6 questions every parent should ask about naloxone and schools.
Naloxone saves lives.
Naloxone is a safe, FDA-approved medication that can reverse an opioid overdose and restore breathing within minutes.
But naloxone can only save a life if it's available when it's needed — and people know how to use it.
That's why access and preparedness matter.
Schools prepare for emergencies every day. Overdose should be no different.
75% of adolescent overdose deaths are linked to fentanyl. Naloxone can reverse an overdose involving fentanyl, making access especially critical.
In an overdose emergency at school, teachers, coaches, nurses and other staff may be there before EMS arrives.
Every school should have a plan. Every school should have access to naloxone. And school staff should know how to respond.
Help make naloxone available in schools.
The School Access to Naloxone Act (S.3588) would help expand access to naloxone in schools — a practical step that can help schools prepare for an overdose emergency and give staff the tools to respond when every minute matters.
Tell Congress to support the School Access to Naloxone Act.
