Crisis hotlines on Rhode Island school ID cards

Rhode Island middle and high schools under the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education must add crisis hotlines to ID cards. Student IDs must list a suicide prevention line and a substance abuse crisis line. Staff IDs for teachers, administrators, professional staff, and custodial staff must include the same info. One number that covers both, like 988, is allowed, and schools may print the numbers or use a sticker. The law takes effect upon passage.
