Section 1 eliminates weighted scoring as a metric for participant progress and makes other technical changes.

Section 2 requires program participants to opt in and provide consent from a parent or guardian who is enrolled in one of an updated list of eligible programs, which includes Women’s Infant & Children (WIC) programs, family home visiting or Follow Along programs, a school’s early childhood screening, or any other Dakota County or school program useful for identifying children at risk of falling below established guidelines.
