Public school students, families & staff don't know about #SB14, which gave students the right to take mental health days as excused absences. These resources let folks know why/how to exercise this right. bit.ly/student-mental-wellne…. Thank you, @portantino and @Evan_Low for #SB14!
Thank you #SB14 co-authors @SenBillDodd @SenBenHueso @SenSusanRubio @SenatorUmberg @BauerKahan @Cunning_Jordan @alex_lee @BMaienschein @QuirkSilvaCA. Please share these resources with your constituents! #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth
