The course provides resources to educators and students to help their mental health. They will complete the course online.

"It's really a message of hope and inspiration to individuals that may not feel like they have everything that everybody else has," the NFL Hall of Famer said. "But, it's not the things you have outwardly that matters, it's what you develop on the inside that truly matters."

Dawkins touches on those topics and more in his new book "Blessed By The Best: My Journey To Canton And Beyond."
