The bill establishes a Type 1 diabetes early detection program by creating a new section, 381.992, in the Florida Statutes. It mandates the Department of Health to collaborate with school districts to develop and disseminate informational materials aimed at parents and guardians of students regarding the early detection of Type 1 diabetes. These materials must be made accessible through the department's website and provided to each school district, school board, and charter school. The department is required to create these materials within 90 days after July 1, 2025, and implement a standardized notification process for first-grade students' parents or guardians within the first 30 days of the school year.

The informational materials must cover various aspects of Type 1 diabetes, including a description of the condition, associated risk factors and warning signs, the screening process using a blood autoantibody test, and recommendations for further evaluation for students showing warning signs or positive screening results. The bill aims to enhance awareness and facilitate early detection of Type 1 diabetes among students, ultimately promoting better health outcomes. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
