Summary

The bill revises several key definitions in California's Welfare and Institutions Code, including what counts as a child, child services, adult services, multidisciplinary personnel, child abuse, parent and family resource center. It also makes a minor wording change to the Water Code about how groundwater basin boundaries are identified. These changes aim to clarify program eligibility and coordination for child‑abuse prevention while aligning groundwater language with existing practice.
