Chamber Passed·2/26/26

Allows sunscreen use in schools and camps without a prescription and creates a skin cancer prevention education program.

New Hampshire SB432 permits students and camp participants to use sunscreen without a prescription if it is FDA-approved for over-the-counter use. It also allows school and camp staff to assist students in applying sunscreen with parental permission. The bill exempts staff from liability for applying sunscreen if used as directed. Additionally, it mandates that schools incorporate sun-safe education into their curriculum, focusing on skin cancer prevention and the dangers of UV exposure. The act takes effect 60 days after its passage.
