AI Summary

This bill requires public schools serving grades 7-12 and public or private institutions of higher education that issue student identification cards to include the telephone numbers for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, the Crisis Text Line, and the school's campus police or security on those cards. Schools that have a supply of pre-existing student ID cards that do not include this information can continue to use those cards until the supply is depleted. The new identification card requirements apply to new student IDs and replacement cards for lost or damaged IDs.
