SUMMARY:Seminar: Are America's Schools Prepared for Overdoses?
DESCRIPTION:Across the United States, overdose is now the third leading cau
 se of death for individuals under age 18. Between 2019 and 2021, monthly y
 outh overdose deaths more than doubled, contributing to more than 107,000 
 deaths nationally in 2023, most linked to illicit synthetic opioids such a
 s fentanyl. Although deaths declined 27% in 2024, progress remains fragile
 . New national surveys indicate that more than 1 in 10 U.S. adults used sy
 nthetic opioids in 2024. This is up sharply from 0.3% just two years earli
 er.\n\n\nYouth remain on the front lines, with over 20% of high school stu
 dents reporting drug exposure on school campuses. Yet preparedness lags: w
 hile 37 states reference school-based overdose management in statute, only
  13 require schools to stock naloxone and just 7 mandate student opioid ed
 ucation. For sheriffs and law enforcement leaders, this crisis is operatio
 nal and often personal. Deputies are often first to respond to 911 calls f
 rom school campuses and frequently serve as embedded School Resource Offic
 ers.\n\n\nThis session highlights the evolving multi-phase national RESPON
 SE Campaign, built on cross-sector collaboration and high-impact partnersh
 ips across education, medicine, and government. Drawing from Arizona&rsquo
 ;s statewide model STOP-IT model, presenters will evaluate emerging practi
 cal tools including sample statewide legislation for elective adaptation, 
 model school overdose response policies, low-cost naloxone access pathways
 , statewide reporting and recording tools and staff/student training curri
 cula options. Participants will evaluate their own state&rsquo;s landscape
  and leave with actionable strategies to strengthen school overdose prepar
 edness, prevention, and policy leadership in their jurisdictions.\n\n\nhtt
