Erin's Law

The Comprehensive Health Education Act, often referred to as Erin’s Law, was signed into law in January 2013. The law expanded existing requirements that schools provide instruction in age-appropriate sexual abuse and assault prevention to include grades pre-kindergarten through 5.

Erin’s Law is named for Erin Merryn, an abuse survivor, who is now a national advocate for sexual abuse. 

District 135 utilizes Tom Kress for the Erin's law presentations. The presentations are age appropriate at each building.
