The bill amends the existing public instruction law in Michigan by adding Section 1509, which mandates the Department of Health and Human Services to develop and distribute an informational notice regarding the dangers of various substances, including tobacco products, vapor products, THC cannabis products, and synthetic intoxicating hemp. This notice must be available in English, Spanish, and Arabic and should include information on prevention and treatment resources, as well as guidance on recognizing and responding to THC poisoning. The initial notice is required to be completed by July 1, 2027, and must be updated annually to reflect new health education or medical research findings.

Starting with the 2027-2028 school year, school districts, public school academies, and nonpublic schools are required to ensure that the informational notices are provided to the parents or legal guardians of enrolled students by October 1 each year. Additionally, schools must post a link to the Department's webpage containing the notices on their own websites. The bill also provides civil liability immunity to the Department, schools, and their employees regarding any damages related to the informational notice.
