On October 10, 2023, the Collaborative for Effective Prescription Opioid Policies (CEPOP) convened stakeholders to discuss policy approaches to expand access to naloxone in school settings. The virtual event convened thought leaders and participants across federal and state government, school health services, student groups, healthcare professional associations, and advocacy organizations to identify potential actions that could be taken by CEPOP and others to accelerate access to naloxone in schools and encourage students’ ability to carry naloxone on school grounds. CEPOP developed a white paper summarizing the proceedings of the roundtable and the recommended next steps to be included in its policy and advocacy strategy.
