AI Summary

This bill aims to provide child exploitation awareness education in schools. It requires the Advisory Council on Violence Prevention to recommend a model curriculum for grades 2 through 8 that covers topics like defining child exploitation, recognizing warning signs, and creating awareness. School districts must incorporate this content into their existing health curriculum, and the Department of Education will provide age-appropriate educational materials to assist with the instructional program. The bill also allows parents to opt their children out of the program and requires yearly training for educational staff on related topics like sexual assault and reporting requirements.
