The motion comes on the heels of a series of overdoses involving Los Angeles Unified School District students, prompting the district to provide Narcan doses to all of its campuses. On Sept. 13, a 15-year-old girl was found dead of a fentanyl overdose in a bathroom on the campus of Bernstein High School in Hollywood.
Shortly after that death, LAUSD Superintendent Alberto Carvalho said more than a half-dozen similar overdoses had occurred in the area involving students, prompting the distribution of Narcan to campuses.Earlier this month, a 17-year-old student at El Camino Real High School died from a fentanyl overdose.
In addition to placing naloxone at county libraries and training librarians about how to administer it, Hahn's motion also asks the county to explore making libraries distribution sites where residents can pick up doses of the medication.
