Requires all employees of a family day care center, group family day care center, school-aged child care program, and child day care center be trained in administering an opioid antagonist; requires a child day care to stock at least one opioid antagonist.

New York Senate Bill S07293, introduced by Senator Jabari Brisport on April 9, 2025, mandates that all employees of family day care centers, group family day care centers, school-aged child care programs, and child day care centers receive training in administering opioid antagonists, such as naloxone. Additionally, the bill requires these child care facilities to maintain a stock of at least one opioid antagonist on-site. The bill was referred to the Senate Children and Families Committee on January 7, 2026, but did not progress further and died in committee.

Positive media analysis is being generated.

Although direct media critiques of S07293 are lacking, potential concerns with such legislation may include the financial burden on child care centers to provide training and maintain opioid antagonists, as well as the added responsibility placed on staff members. Critics might also question the necessity of such measures in child care settings, where the likelihood of encountering opioid overdoses is perceived to be low.
