Picture
Our work changes lives.

Start School Later/Healthy Hours was started by a small group of volunteers in 2011. We are now an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit powered mostly by volunteers who work tirelessly to help students get healthy sleep and help schools in the US and beyond return to schedules that allow for healthy sleep. 


​We are incredibly proud of our accomplishments in these few short years, including:
  • Assisting local advocates working for safe, healthy, sleep-friendly, and equitable school hours.
  • Providing technical assistance to school communities working toward healthy school hours by connecting scientists, educators, and change management experts
  • Developing and distributing award-winning sleep-education programs
  • Providing webinars and resources about student sleep health to schools and communities
  • Maintaining an online clearinghouse about school start times and student sleep health
  • Sponsoring landmark “start school later” legislation in California (2019)

We can’t do it alone.
We’ve done wonders on a shoe-string budget. But as our accomplishments have grown, so have our expenses. Your tax-deductible donation can help us cover these, so that we can build on these accomplishments and continue to help kids and communities.

​Your tax-deductible donation keeps us going
