Sun Safety Education

Sun Safety Education involves teaching people how to protect themselves from the harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. This includes using broad-spectrum sunscreen, wearing protective clothing and hats, seeking shade during peak hours, and avoiding tanning beds. The goal is to reduce the risk of skin damage, premature aging, and skin cancers like melanoma. By understanding the importance of sun protection and adopting safe practices, individuals can enjoy outdoor activities while minimizing health risks associated with UV exposure.
