New School Year, New Mental Health Lessons: 2 States Now Require It

• I believe the requirement of mental health lessons in 2 states creates many opportunities of how to teach these mental health lessons. Whether the creation of textbooks, a new application on phones, or jobs all together, the creation of a requirement in schools provides businesses with many job opportunities. 
• The typical consumer with this opportunity is likely school boards. I assume that school boards will be enacting this system into their curriculum, and they will be in the market to buy the next best method for teaching students about mental health. 

With this being said, my personal solution to this issue would definitely be the combination of a product and service. I believe there should be a specific department of people pulled together, those knowledgeable on the topics of mental health, and they should design an online platform and maybe even a textbook that highlights the importance of mental health. The textbook or online course would be the product, and the service would be a group of people that would venture to multiple schools, going over the textbook, teaching the basics of the online course, and hopefully embedding this curriculum into multiple school boards.
