The curriculum will integrate lessons on the importance of sleep hygiene, the impact of trauma on mental wellness, and peer support systems to create a comprehensive support network. Input from educators and mental health professionals will be essential to ensure the content is tailored to meet the specific needs of Arizona's diverse student population, making this initiative a model for other states.

By focusing on school programs that emphasize psychological resilience and sleep health, Arizona is poised to tackle pressing mental health challenges head-on. Such initiatives provide a framework that recognizes the interconnectedness of education, mental wellness, and community health, distinctly addressing the needs of its youth.
