Education: all other employees; regional school health coordinators; require. Amends sec. 3 of 1969 PA 226 (MCL 388.383).

This bill amends Michigan's Critical Health Problems Education Act to strengthen the state's comprehensive health education initiatives. It requires the Department of Education to create a program that guides local school districts in developing health curricula and provides professional training for teachers. A key provision mandates the use of regional school health coordinators, who are qualified professionals funded by state agencies to assist in implementing wellness programs across all schools. Additionally, the legislation expands the department's staff with health education specialists and fosters partnerships between schools and higher education institutions to improve teacher preparation.
