Start School Later Connecticut
Announcing a statewide initiative!
We’re excited to launch our Healthy Hours Connecticut Initiative to help Connecticut schools adopt and ensure developmentally appropriate school start times! Our goal is to ensure that Connecticut schools start at times that allow teens to get the essential sleep they need to be safe, healthy, and successful.
This initiative will include support for individual school districts working to adopt healthy start times as well as statewide efforts to ensure that every student can start school at safe, healthy hours.
This year, we’re hosting an Adolescents and School Start Times Workshop at Trinity College on October 13, 2026 (for advocates and school officials) and fundraising for the initiative.
We’d love for you to join us in this movement!
