• Erin's Law

    Erin's Law (Act 293) was approved by the state legislature in June, 2014, requiring Pre-Kindergarten through high school grade level instruction in the prevention of child sexual abuse and sexual assault. The South Carolina Department of Education created Erin's Law instructional units and professional development opportunities in support of the new legislation that amended the Comprehensive Health Education Act. The professional development trainings were prepared in three modules. The general session module is entitled "Erin's Law: School District Staff Requirements for Mandatory Reporting". This module should be viewed by all school administrators and staff to help them understand their responsibilities and the necessary procedures to follow in handling suspected child sexual abuse. There are two professional development modules to assist teachers in implementing Erin's Law instruction. One module (Erin's Law: Elementary Instructional Units) outlines elementary level instruction and the other module (Erin's Law: Middle and High School Instructional Units) outlines middle and high school instruction. The Elementary and Middle and High school modules include the Scope and Sequence of the instructional units along with providing examples of actual classroom lessons.
