Summary: SB 25‑250 — "Repeal Disordered Eating Prevention Program"

Status: Governor signed (enacted)
Introduced: March 31, 2025
Primary sponsors: Sen. Shannon Bird; Rep. Rick Taggart; Rep. Barbara Kirkmeyer; Rep. Judy Amabile
Cosponsors: E. Sirota; R. Gonzalez; J. Bridges

Purpose / Intent

Based on its title, SB 25‑250 repeals an existing statutory program known as the "Disordered Eating Prevention Program." The bill’s primary effect is to remove the statutory authorization (and any related program responsibilities, reporting, or appropriations) for that program from state law.

Key points and likely provisions

  • Repeal of statute(s): The bill removes the legal authority establishing the Disordered Eating Prevention Program. (The bill text is not included in the provided materials; see Notes below for how to locate exact language and statutory references.)
  • Program operations: Repeal would end any state‑authorized activities implemented under that program (e.g., prevention education, training, outreach, screening, data collection) unless separately continued or transferred by other law or administrative action.
  • Appropriations and contracts: Repeal may affect existing appropriations, grant agreements, contracts, or interagency arrangements tied to the program—either ending future funding or requiring transition/closeout of active contracts.
  • Transition/implementation details: The available record does not include implementation, transition timelines, or grandfathering provisions (for ongoing services or reporting). Those details, if present, would appear in the bill text or the enacted act.

Who would be affected

  • Participants and beneficiaries of the program (students, school communities, patients, or at‑risk populations served by the program).
  • State agencies or local entities administering prevention services or grants tied to the program.
  • Providers, contractors, and nonprofit partners delivering program activities.
  • State budget/appropriations if funds are rescinded, reallocated, or lapse.
