Louie’s Law: Illinois legislation sets new standard for drug education in schools – FOX32 (Chicago)

Louie's Law is a departure from previous programs that only taught students to "just say no" to drugs; it's a mandate for the Illinois Board of Education to create and recommend a comprehensive drug education curriculum because currently there isn’t one. It will also give high school students the chance to learn how to recognize an overdose. They will also learn how to use fentanyl test strips, administer naloxone and other harm reduction steps.
