This toolkit is designed as a resource for state/tribe/territory/jurisdiction comprehensive cancer control (CCC) programs interested in engaging schools and other education partners in sun safety efforts to reduce their state/tribe/territory/jurisdiction’s incidence of skin cancer. Since a majority of sun exposure occurs during childhood and early adulthood, and key sun protective behaviors can be established most easily at this time, addressing sun safety for young people is an important cancer control objective.
