Fentanyl Awareness
2024 General Assembly HB1473 required the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) and the Virginia Department of Health (VDH) to work collaboratively to develop a fentanyl education and awareness informational one-sheet and make this resource available to each school board for distribution to all 9-12 grade students within the first two weeks of the 2024-2025 school year. The Fentanyl Awareness informational one-sheet was created through that partnership. School divisions should ensure that all 9-12 graders have this sheet within the first two weeks of the 2024-2025 school year.
