This back-to-school season OHAAT is on a mission through our Sleep Well Campaign to highlight the vital connection between healthy bedtime routines and a child’s overall well-being.

Why is Sleep Important?

Quality, sustained sleep is vital for one's body and daily success. However, poor sleep health is common with up to two-thirds of children obtaining insufficient sleep for their age. In addition, children of lower socioeconomic status are at increased risk of sleep concerns, partially due to the stressors related to socioeconomically disadvantaged contexts.
