Erin’s Law:

Requires Public Schools to Teach Classes to Students in Kindergarten Through Eighth Grade About Preventing Sexual Abuse and Exploitation

Governor Cuomo: "Many children who have been a victim of these horrific crimes or who are still suffering from abuse don't have the information or emotional tools they need to fight back. By requiring schools to teach kids how to recognize and ultimately thwart this heinous behavior, we are giving our most vulnerable New Yorkers a voice and empowering them to protect themselves."

Curriculum and Instruction (Kingergarten - 8th Grades)

Resources include grade-banded curricular benchmarks that will assist in guiding instruction and lesson development as well as a suite of available curricular resources appropriate for various grade levels.
