Implement CPR as a Graduation Requirement in Massachusetts

The Issue

CPR is a useful tool that could help save lives, and you’ll never know when you need it. Currently, 43 out of 50 states require CPR training for high school graduation, but Massachusetts is not one of them. By making CPR training mandatory for graduation in Massachusetts, we can ensure that our students are equipped with this life-saving skill that could be useful in any given situation and is a requirement for a handful of jobs. This initiative could significantly increase the number of individuals capable of performing CPR in emergency situations, potentially saving countless lives. Sign this petition to urge the Massachusetts Department of Education to implement CPR as a graduation requirement!
