Utah law limits who can access vital records — documents like birth and death certificates — to people with a direct, legitimate interest, such as the subject of the record, immediate family members, or legal representatives. This bill adds school liaisons for homeless children and youth, as designated under the federal McKinney-Vento Homeless Education Assistance Act, to the list of people legally authorized to access a minor's vital records on their behalf.
