This bill proposes updates to section 36-551 of the Arizona Revised Statutes concerning developmental disabilities. It introduces the term "Prader-Willi syndrome" and provides a definition for it, which describes the genetic disorder's characteristics, including short stature, intellectual disability, and uncontrolled appetite leading to obesity. Additionally, the bill modifies the numbering of subsequent definitions, changing the numbering from 38 to 39 and so forth, to accommodate the new insertion.

Furthermore, the bill removes outdated definitions and renumbers the remaining terms accordingly. The definitions for "Psychologist," "Respite services," "Responsible person," "Service provider," "State operated service center," "Subaverage general intellectual functioning," "Substantial functional limitation," and "Supervision" are retained but renumbered from 39 to 46. Overall, the bill aims to modernize the language and definitions related to developmental disabilities in Arizona law.
