School Health Advisory Committee created, and reports required.
HF 2491 creates a School Health Advisory Committee to advise Minnesota's governor and legislature on school health policies. The committee reviews policies affecting student health, identifies essential health data to collect, and establishes models for supporting students with chronic conditions like asthma or diabetes. It must report annually by January 15 on health needs and recommend improvements to school health services and funding streams. This bill directly affects Minnesota public schools, students (especially those with health conditions), and school health staff through new advisory and reporting requirements.
