Requires courses of study in private schools in the prevention of child sexual exploitation and child sexual abuse

This bill requires all private schools in New York to implement prevention education for students in grades K-8, focusing on child sexual exploitation and abuse. The program must be developed by the education commissioner with input from the health department, covering prevention strategies for students, parents, and school staff. It mandates specific curriculum content but allows the state to provide model materials online for schools. The law applies to all private schools in the state and takes effect July 1, 2025.
