Relates to a public awareness educational program on heroin; appropriation
S 4184 requires New York's mental hygiene commissioner to create a public awareness program about heroin risks, targeting high-risk groups through public service announcements and interactive media. The program must cover specific topics like overdose treatment, New York's Good Samaritan law, addiction demographics, and the HOPEline support service, and must be widely distributed via social media and a downloadable website resource. The bill appropriates $500,000 from the state general fund to fund this program, which will be administered by the Office of Addiction Services and Supports. It directly affects the public by increasing access to heroin-related education and resources.
