Requires schools to include instruction on the prevention of eating disorders as an integral part of their health education programs

This bill mandates that public schools in New York incorporate eating disorder prevention into their health education curricula for students in grades six through twelve. The instruction must be tailored to the age and abilities of each grade level, aiming to help students develop a healthy self-image and live healthy lives. Schools are directed to design these lessons in consultation with existing eating disorder care centers, ensuring the content is integrated into existing nutrition programs. The changes take effect on September 1st of the year following the bill's enactment.
