The proposed bill would introduce a new Child Sexual Abuse and Assault Awareness and Prevention Pilot Program within the Arizona Department of Education, which would be operational until December 31, 2028. This program would involve the selection of six public schools to develop a curriculum in collaboration with the Department of Child Safety and relevant organizations. It mandates evidence-based instructional modules for teachers and students on recognizing and responding to child sexual abuse, grooming behaviors, and exploitation. The bill also stipulates that no student can be compelled to participate, allowing for parental opt-out.

Furthermore, the bill appropriates $100,000 from the state General Fund for the program in FY 2027 and requires participating schools to report on the program's implementation, including feedback and the number of participants. Key terms such as "grooming" and "exploitation" are defined, and the program is set to be repealed on January 1, 2029. The appropriation is exempt from lapsing provisions until June 30, 2028, ensuring funding continuity for the program's duration.
