Louisiana students get suicide hotline information

Louisiana public and approved nonpublic middle and high schools must post suicide prevention information on their websites. This includes 988, an explanation that students can call or text, and local and state hotlines when available. Websites must also link to Louisiana988.org; schools may include this information in student handbooks. School authorities that issue student ID cards must print the hotline numbers and call-or-text explanation on them. Middle and high schools receiving federal funds must also post easily visible signs encouraging students in emotional distress to seek help. Signs must explain that 988 accepts calls and texts and is free, confidential, and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They must list Louisiana988.org and explain that online chat and other resources are available there. Sign locations include entrances, exits, student common areas, counselor and nurse offices, and areas near restrooms and locker rooms. Schools must also use digital bulletin boards when available.
