MO HB513

Expands the definition of disability to include "other" disabilities as defined in section 213.010, broadening protections beyond visual, aural, and physical disabilities.

Extends service dog rights to persons with mental disabilities, including those with autism, allowing them to be accompanied by service dogs in public places without extra charges.

Adds "search and rescue dog" to the types of recognized service dogs, defined as dogs trained to search for or prevent a person with a mental disability (including autism) from becoming lost.

Allows service dog trainers and members of a "service dog team" (a trained service dog, disabled person or child, and trained adult handler) to access public premises while engaged in dog training without paying extra charges.

Replaces sections 209.150, 209.152, and 209.200 of Missouri Revised Statutes relating to Sean's Law, which governs service dog access and accommodations.
