Bill Summary
General Description: This bill includes instruction in social health within the required health curriculum in the public education system.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing Utah law to include "social health" as a required component of the public education health curriculum, defining social health as an individual's ability to build, maintain, and improve relationships with others and themselves. This addition means that the state board of education will now be required to ensure that the health curriculum includes instruction in social health, alongside existing topics like refusal skills and situational awareness, which are defined within the bill as skills for refusing unwanted advances and being aware of one's surroundings, respectively. The bill also specifies an effective date of July 1, 2026.
