New York City Council
Summary
This bill would require the Commissioner of Health and Mental Hygiene to create the Child Care Opioid Antagonist Program to help prevent opioid overdoses at child care centers. The program would permit an owner or employee of a child care center to request 1 opioid antagonist kit for every child that is registered at the center, and 1 kit for every owner and employee of the center, at one time, free of charge, for administration to individuals on premises experiencing an opioid overdose. The Commissioner would be required to offer free training and other resources to owners and employees of child care centers on the administration of opioid antagonists. The Commissioner would also be required to report annually to the Mayor and the Speaker of the Council on the number of opioid antagonist kits provided by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene to child care programs and the number of opioid antagonist trainings offered by the Commissioner to child care programs.
