Modifies provisions relating to child protection
SB 801 updates Missouri laws regarding child protection by establishing new fees for vital records like birth and death certificates while creating specific exemptions for vulnerable groups. The bill waives these fees for children under juvenile court jurisdiction, homeless youth, and victims of domestic violence who provide documentation from a professional. Additionally, it directs a portion of the collected fees to state funds dedicated to improving the vital records system and supporting homeless families.
