Overview
Under a 2021 California law, students may take days off from school for the purpose of supporting their mental health, and these absences must be excused by public schools.
In collaboration with SafeSpace, CEC has created information and resources for students, families, and school staff about the importance of occasional mental health days as a way to reduce chronic absenteeism that can stand in the way of academic performance and wellness.
