This bill requires colleges and universities to include suicide prevention contact information on student identification cards, specifically the phone numbers for the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, Crisis Text Line, and each institution's campus mental health center. Schools that don't issue ID cards must instead publish this same information prominently on their websites. The requirement applies to any institution that creates or distributes ID cards after the bill becomes law, and takes effect one year after enactment. The bill affects all higher education institutions nationwide and aims to make mental health resources more accessible to students by placing crisis contact information directly in their hands or easily available online.
