The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 5521, aims to amend the general statutes to mandate the assignment of a state-assigned student identifier number to every child born in Connecticut. This initiative is intended to facilitate data analyses regarding a child's developmental growth over time and to provide support for children who may experience developmental delays but do not qualify for existing services.

The bill introduces new legal language that requires the assignment of these identifiers at birth, thereby enhancing the state's ability to track and analyze developmental progress among children. There are no deletions from current law mentioned in the text of the bill. The overall goal is to improve the state's educational and developmental support systems for children from the moment of their birth.
