[May 2, 2001] 6 Mr. Speaker -- I am directed to inform the House of Representatives that the Senate has concurred with the House of Representatives in the passage of a bill of the following title to-wit: HOUSE BILL 632 A bill for AN ACT in relation to children. Together with the attached amendment thereto (which amendment has been printed by the Senate), in the adoption of which I am instructed to ask the concurrence of the House, to-wit: Senate Amendment No. 1 to HOUSE BILL NO. 632. Passed the Senate, as amended, May 2, 2001. Jim Harry, Secretary of the Senate AMENDMENT NO. 1. Amend House Bill 632 as follows: by replacing everything after the enacting clause with the following: "Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the Abandoned Newborn Infant Protection Act. Section 5. Public policy. Illinois recognizes that newborn infants have been abandoned to the environment or to other circumstances that may be unsafe to the newborn infant. These circumstances have caused injury and death to newborn infants and give rise to potential civil or criminal liability to parents who may be under severe emotional distress. This Act is intended to provide a mechanism for a newborn infant to be relinquished to a safe environment and for the parents of the infant to remain anonymous if they choose and to avoid civil or criminal liability for the act of relinquishing the infant. It is recognized that establishing an adoption plan is preferable to relinquishing a child using the procedures outlined in this Act, but to reduce the chance of injury to a newborn infant, this Act provides a safer alternative. A public information campaign on this delicate issue shall be implemented to encourage parents considering abandonment of their newborn child to relinquish the child under the procedures outlined in this Act, to choose a traditional adoption plan, or to parent a child themselves rather than place the newborn infant in harm's way. Section 10. Definitions. In this Act: "Abandon" has the same meaning as in the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. "Abused child" has the same meaning as in the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. "Child-placing agency" means a licensed public or private agency that receives a child for the purpose of placing or arranging for the placement of the child in a foster family home or other facility for child care, apart from the custody of the child's parents. "Department" or "DCFS" means the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services. "Emergency medical facility" means a freestanding emergency center or trauma center, as defined in the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Systems Act. "Emergency medical professional" includes licensed physicians, and any emergency medical technician-basic, emergency medical technician-intermediate, emergency medical technician-paramedic, trauma nurse specialist, and pre-hospital RN, as defined in the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Systems Act. "Fire station" means a fire station within the State that is staffed with at least one full-time emergency medical professional. "Hospital" has the same meaning as in the Hospital Licensing Act. "Legal custody" means the relationship created by a court order in the best interest of a newborn infant that imposes on the infant's
7 [May 2, 2001] custodian the responsibility of physical possession of the infant, the duty to protect, train, and discipline the infant, and the duty to provide the infant with food, shelter, education, and medical care, except as these are limited by parental rights and responsibilities. "Neglected child" has the same meaning as in the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. "Newborn infant" means a child who a licensed physician reasonably believes is 72 hours old or less at the time the child is initially relinquished to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, and who is not an abused or a neglected child. "Relinquish" means to bring a newborn infant, who a licensed physician reasonably believes is 72 hours old or less, to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility and to leave the infant with personnel of the facility, if the person leaving the infant does not express an intent to return for the infant or states that he or she will not return for the infant. In the case of a mother who gives birth to an infant in a hospital, the mother's act of leaving that newborn infant at the hospital (i) without expressing an intent to return for the infant or (ii) stating that she will not return for the infant is not a "relinquishment" under this Act. "Temporary protective custody" means the temporary placement of a newborn infant within a hospital or other medical facility out of the custody of the infant's parent. Section 15. Presumptions. (a) There is a presumption that by relinquishing a newborn infant in accordance with this Act, the infant's parent consents to the termination of his or her parental rights with respect to the infant. (b) There is a presumption that a person relinquishing a newborn infant in accordance with this Act: (1) is the newborn infant's biological parent; and (2) either without expressing an intent to return for the infant or expressing an intent not to return for the infant, did intend to relinquish the infant to the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility to treat, care for, and provide for the infant in accordance with this Act. (c) A parent of a relinquished newborn infant may rebut the presumption set forth in either subsection (a) or subsection (b) pursuant to Section 55, at any time before the termination of the parent's parental rights. Section 20. Procedures with respect to relinquished newborn infants. (a) Hospitals. Every hospital must accept and provide all necessary emergency services and care to a relinquished newborn infant, in accordance with this Act. The hospital shall examine a relinquished newborn infant and perform tests that, based on reasonable medical judgment, are appropriate in evaluating whether the relinquished newborn infant was abused or neglected. The act of relinquishing a newborn infant serves as implied consent for the hospital and its medical personnel and physicians on staff to treat and provide care for the infant. The hospital shall be deemed to have temporary protective custody of a relinquished newborn infant until the infant is discharged to the custody of a child-placing agency or the Department. (b) Fire stations and emergency medical facilities. Every fire station and emergency medical facility must accept and provide all necessary emergency services and care to a relinquished newborn infant, in accordance with this Act. The act of relinquishing a newborn infant serves as implied consent for the fire station or emergency medical facility and its emergency medical professionals to treat and provide care for the infant, to the extent that those emergency medical professionals are trained to provide those services. After the relinquishment of a newborn infant to a fire station or emergency medical facility, the fire station or emergency medical facility's personnel must arrange for the transportation of the infant to the nearest hospital as soon as transportation can be arranged.
[May 2, 2001] 8 If the parent of a newborn infant returns to reclaim the child within 72 hours after relinquishing the child to a fire station or emergency medical facility, the fire station or emergency medical facility must inform the parent of the name and location of the hospital to which the infant was transported. Section 25. Immunity for relinquishing person. (a) The act of relinquishing a newborn infant to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility in accordance with this Act does not, by itself, constitute a basis for a finding of abuse, neglect, or abandonment of the infant pursuant to the laws of this State nor does it, by itself, constitute a violation of Section 12-21.5 or 12-21.6 of the Criminal Code of 1961. (b) If there is suspected child abuse or neglect that is not based solely on the newborn infant's relinquishment to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, the personnel of the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility who are mandated reporters under the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act must report the abuse or neglect pursuant to that Act. (c) Neither a child protective investigation nor a criminal investigation may be initiated solely because a newborn infant is relinquished pursuant to this Act. Section 27. Immunity of facility and personnel. A hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, and any personnel of a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, are immune from criminal or civil liability for acting in good faith in accordance with this Act. Nothing in this Act limits liability for negligence for care and medical treatment. Section 30. Anonymity of relinquishing person. If there is no evidence of abuse or neglect of a relinquished newborn infant, the relinquishing person has the right to remain anonymous and to leave the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility at any time and not be pursued or followed. Before the relinquishing person leaves the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility personnel shall i) verbally inform the relinquishing person that by relinquishing the child anonymously, he or she will have to petition the court if he or she desires to prevent the termination of parental rights and regain custody of the child and ii) shall offer the relinquishing person the information packet described in Section 35 of this Act. However, nothing in this Act shall be construed as precluding the relinquishing person from providing his or her identity or completing the application forms for the Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical Information Exchange and requesting that the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility forward those forms to the Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical information Exchange. Section 35. Information for relinquishing person. A hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility that receives a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act must offer an information packet to the relinquishing person and, if possible, must clearly inform the relinquishing person that his or her acceptance of the information is completely voluntary, that registration with the Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical Information Exchange is voluntary, that the person will remain anonymous if he or she completes a Denial of Information Exchange, and that the person has the option to provide medical information only and still remain anonymous. The information packet must include all of the following: (1) All Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical Information Exchange application forms, including the Medical Information Exchange Questionnaire and the web site address and toll free phone number of the Registry. (2) Written notice of the following: (A) No sooner than 60 days following the date of the initial relinquishment of the infant to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility, the child-placing agency or the Department will commence proceedings for the termination of parental rights and placement of the infant for
9 [May 2, 2001] adoption. (B) Failure of a parent of the infant to contact the Department and petition for the return of custody of the infant before termination of parental rights bars any future action asserting legal rights with respect to the infant. (3) A resource list of providers of counseling services including grief counseling, pregnancy counseling, and counseling regarding adoption and other available options for placement of the infant. Upon request, the Department of Public Health shall provide the application forms for the Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical Information Exchange to hospitals, fire stations, and emergency medical facilities. Section 40. Reporting requirements. (a) Within 12 hours after accepting a newborn infant from a relinquishing person or from a fire station or emergency medical facility in accordance with this Act, a hospital must report to the Department's State Central Registry for the purpose of transferring physical custody of the infant from the hospital to either a child-placing agency or the Department. (b) Within 24 hours after receiving a report under subsection (a), the Department must request assistance from law enforcement officials to investigate the matter using the National Crime Information Center to ensure that the relinquished newborn infant is not a missing child. (c) Once a hospital has made a report to the Department under subsection (a), the Department must arrange for a licensed child-placing agency to accept physical custody of the relinquished newborn infant. (d) If a relinquished child is not a newborn infant as defined in this Act, the hospital and the Department must proceed as if the child is an abused or neglected child. Section 45. Medical assistance. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act shall be deemed eligible for medical assistance under the Illinois Public Aid Code, and a hospital providing medical services to such an infant shall be reimbursed for those services in accordance with the payment methodologies authorized under that Code. In addition, for any day that a hospital has custody of a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act and the infant does not require medically necessary care, the hospital shall be reimbursed by the Illinois Department of Public Aid at the general acute care per diem rate, in accordance with 89 Ill. Adm. Code 148.270(c). Section 50. Child-placing agency procedures. (a) The Department's State Central Registry must maintain a list of licensed child-placing agencies willing to take legal custody of newborn infants relinquished in accordance with this Act. The child-placing agencies on the list must be contacted by the Department on a rotating basis upon notice from a hospital that a newborn infant has been relinquished in accordance with this Act. (b) Upon notice from the Department that a newborn infant has been relinquished in accordance with this Act, a child-placing agency must accept the newborn infant if the agency has the accommodations to do so. The child-placing agency must seek an order for legal custody of the infant upon its acceptance of the infant. (c) Within 3 business days after assuming physical custody of the infant, the child-placing agency shall file a petition in the division of the circuit court in which petitions for adoption would normally be heard. The petition shall allege that the newborn infant has been relinquished in accordance with this Act and shall state that the child-placing agency intends to place the infant in an adoptive home. (d) If no licensed child-placing agency is able to accept the relinquished newborn infant, then the Department must assume responsibility for the infant as soon as practicable. (e) A custody order issued under subsection (b) shall remain in effect until a final adoption order based on the relinquished newborn infant's best interests is issued in accordance with this Act and the
[May 2, 2001] 10 Adoption Act. (f) When possible, the child-placing agency must place a relinquished newborn infant in a prospective adoptive home. (g) The Department or child-placing agency must initiate proceedings to (i) terminate the parental rights of the relinquished newborn infant's known or unknown parents, (ii) appoint a guardian for the infant, and (iii) obtain consent to the infant's adoption in accordance with this Act no sooner than 60 days following the date of the initial relinquishment of the infant to the hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility. (h) Before filing a petition for termination of parental rights, the Department or child-placing agency must do the following: (1) Search its Putative Father Registry for the purpose of determining the identity and location of the putative father of the relinquished newborn infant who is, or is expected to be, the subject of an adoption proceeding, in order to provide notice of the proceeding to the putative father. At least one search of the Registry must be conducted, at least 30 days after the relinquished newborn infant's estimated date of birth; earlier searches may be conducted, however. Notice to any potential putative father discovered in a search of the Registry according to the estimated age of the relinquished newborn infant must be in accordance with Section 12a of the Adoption Act. (2) Verify with law enforcement officials, using the National Crime Information Center, that the relinquished newborn infant is not a missing child. Section 55. Petition for return of custody. (a) A parent of a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act may petition for the return of custody of the infant before the termination of parental rights with respect to the infant. (b) A parent of a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act may petition for the return of custody of the infant by contacting the Department for the purpose of obtaining the name of the child-placing agency and then filing a petition for return of custody in the circuit court in which the proceeding for the termination of parental rights is pending. (c) If a petition for the termination of parental rights has not been filed by the Department or the child-placing agency, the parent of the relinquished newborn infant must contact the Department, which must notify the parent of the appropriate court in which the petition for return of custody must be filed. (d) The circuit court may hold the proceeding for the termination of parental rights in abeyance for a period not to exceed 60 days from the date that the petition for return of custody was filed without a showing of good cause. During that period: (1) The court shall order genetic testing to establish maternity or paternity, or both. (2) The Department shall conduct a child protective investigation and home study to develop recommendations to the court. (3) When indicated as a result of the Department's investigation and home study, further proceedings under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 as the court determines appropriate, may be conducted. However, relinquishment of a newborn infant in accordance with this Act does not render the infant abused, neglected, or abandoned solely because the newborn infant was relinquished to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility in accordance with this Act. (e) Failure to file a petition for the return of custody of a relinquished newborn infant before the termination of parental rights bars any future action asserting legal rights with respect to the infant unless the parent's act of relinquishment that led to the termination of parental rights involved fraud perpetrated against and not stemming from or involving the parent. No action to void or revoke the termination of parental rights of a parent of a newborn infant relinquished in accordance with this Act, including an action based on
11 [May 2, 2001] fraud, may be commenced after 12 months after the date that the newborn infant was initially relinquished to a hospital, fire station, or emergency medical facility. Section 60. Department's duties. The Department must implement a public information program to promote safe placement alternatives for newborn infants. The public information program must inform the public of the following: (1) The relinquishment alternative provided for in this Act, which results in the adoption of a newborn infant under 72 hours of age and which provides for the parent's anonymity, if the parent so chooses. (2) The alternative of adoption through a public or private agency, in which the parent's identity may or may not be known to the agency, but is kept anonymous from the adoptive parents, if the birth parent so desires, and which allows the parent to be actively involved in the child's adoption plan. The public information program may include, but need not be limited to, the following elements: (i) Educational and informational materials in print, audio, video, electronic or other media. (ii) Establishment of a web site. (iii) Public service announcements and advertisements. (iv) Establishment of toll-free telephone hotlines to provide information. Section 65. Evaluation. (a) The Department shall collect and analyze information regarding the relinquishment of newborn infants and placement of children under this Act. Fire stations, emergency medical facilities, and medical professionals accepting and providing services to a newborn infant under this Act shall report to the Department data necessary for the Department to evaluate and determine the effect of this Act in the prevention of injury or death of newborn infants. Child-placing agencies shall report to the Department data necessary to evaluate and determine the effectiveness of these agencies in providing child protective and child welfare services to newborn infants relinquished under this Act. (b) The information collected shall include, but need not be limited to: the number of newborn infants relinquished; the services provided to relinquished newborn infants; the outcome of care for the relinquished newborn infants; the number and disposition of cases of relinquished newborn infants subject to placement; the number of children accepted and served by child-placing agencies; and the services provided by child-placing agencies and the disposition of the cases of the children placed under this Act. (c) The Department shall submit a report by January 1, 2002, and on January 1 of each year thereafter, to the Governor and General Assembly regarding the prevention of injury or death of newborn infants and the effect of placements of children under this Act. The report shall include, but need not be limited to, a summary of collected data, an analysis of the data and conclusions regarding the Act's effectiveness, a determination whether the purposes of the Act are being achieved, and recommendations for changes that may be considered necessary to improve the administration and enforcement of this Act. Section 70. Construction of Act. Nothing in this Act shall be construed to preclude the courts of this State from exercising their discretion to protect the health and safety of children in individual cases. The best interests and welfare of a child shall be a paramount consideration in the construction and interpretation of this Act. It is in the child's best interests that this Act be construed and interpreted so as not to result in extending time limits beyond those set forth in this Act. Section 75. Repeal. This Act is repealed on July 1, 2007. Section 90. The Illinois Public Aid Code is amended by changing Section 4-1.2 as follows: (305 ILCS 5/4-1.2) (from Ch. 23, par. 4-1.2) Sec. 4-1.2. Living Arrangements - Parents - Relatives - Foster
[May 2, 2001] 12 Care. (a) The child or children must (1) be living with his or their father, mother, grandfather, grandmother, brother, sister, stepfather, stepmother, stepbrother, stepsister, uncle or aunt, or other relative approved by the Illinois Department, in a place of residence maintained by one or more of such relatives as his or their own home, or (2) have been (a) removed from the home of the parents or other relatives by judicial order under the Juvenile Court Act or the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, as amended, (b) placed under the guardianship of the Department of Children and Family Services, and (c) under such guardianship, placed in a foster family home, group home or child care institution licensed pursuant to the "Child Care Act of 1969", approved May 15, 1969, as amended, or approved by that Department as meeting standards established for licensing under that Act, or (3) have been relinquished in accordance with the Abandoned Newborn Infant Protection Act. A child so placed in foster care who was not receiving aid under this Article in or for the month in which the court proceedings leading to that placement were initiated may qualify only if he lived in the home of his parents or other relatives at the time the proceedings were initiated, or within 6 months prior to the month of initiation, and would have received aid in and for that month if application had been made therefor. (b) The Illinois Department may, by rule, establish those persons who are living together who must be included in the same assistance unit in order to receive cash assistance under this Article and the income and assets of those persons in an assistance unit which must be considered in determining eligibility. (c) The conditions of qualification herein specified shall not prejudice aid granted under this Code for foster care prior to the effective date of this 1969 Amendatory Act. (Source: P.A. 90-17, eff. 7-1-97.) Section 92. The Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act is amended by changing Section 3 as follows: (325 ILCS 5/3) (from Ch. 23, par. 2053) Sec. 3. As used in this Act unless the context otherwise requires: "Child" means any person under the age of 18 years, unless legally emancipated by reason of marriage or entry into a branch of the United States armed services. "Department" means Department of Children and Family Services. "Local law enforcement agency" means the police of a city, town, village or other incorporated area or the sheriff of an unincorporated area or any sworn officer of the Illinois Department of State Police. "Abused child" means a child whose parent or immediate family member, or any person responsible for the child's welfare, or any individual residing in the same home as the child, or a paramour of the child's parent: a. inflicts, causes to be inflicted, or allows to be inflicted upon such child physical injury, by other than accidental means, which causes death, disfigurement, impairment of physical or emotional health, or loss or impairment of any bodily function; b. creates a substantial risk of physical injury to such child by other than accidental means which would be likely to cause death, disfigurement, impairment of physical or emotional health, or loss or impairment of any bodily function; c. commits or allows to be committed any sex offense against such child, as such sex offenses are defined in the Criminal Code of 1961, as amended, and extending those definitions of sex offenses to include children under 18 years of age; d. commits or allows to be committed an act or acts of torture upon such child; e. inflicts excessive corporal punishment; f. commits or allows to be committed the offense of female genital mutilation, as defined in Section 12-34 of the Criminal Code of 1961, against the child; or g. causes to be sold, transferred, distributed, or given to such child under 18 years of age, a controlled substance as defined

A violation of this Section that is a proximate cause of the death of the child is a Class 3 felony for which a person, if sentenced to a term of imprisonment, shall be sentenced to a term of not less than 2 years and not more than 10 years. (Source: P.A. 90-687, eff. 7-31-98.) Section 96.5. The Neglected Children Offense Act is amended by changing Section 2 as follows: (720 ILCS 130/2) (from Ch. 23, par. 2361) Sec. 2. Any parent, legal guardian or person having the custody of a child under the age of 18 years, who knowingly or wilfully causes, aids or encourages such person to be or to become a dependent and neglected child as defined in section 1, who knowingly or wilfully does acts which directly tend to render any such child so dependent and neglected, or who knowingly or wilfully fails to do that which will directly tend to prevent such state of dependency and neglect is guilty of the Class A misdemeanor of contributing to the dependency and neglect of children, except that a person who relinquishes a child in accordance with the Abandoned Newborn Infant Protection Act is not guilty of that misdemeanor. Instead of imposing the punishment hereinbefore provided, the court may release the defendant from custody on probation for one year upon his or her entering into recognizance
17 [May 2, 2001] with or without surety in such sum as the court directs. The conditions of the recognizance shall be such that if the defendant appears personally in court whenever ordered to do so within the year and provides and cares for such neglected and dependent child in such manner as to prevent a continuance or repetition of such state of dependency and neglect or as otherwise may be directed by the court then the recognizance shall be void, otherwise it shall be of full force and effect. If the court is satisfied by information and due proof under oath that at any time during the year the defendant has violated the terms of such order it may forthwith revoke the order and sentence him or her under the original conviction. Unless so sentenced, the defendant shall at the end of the year be discharged. In case of forfeiture on the recognizance the sum recovered thereon may in the discretion of the court be paid in whole or in part to someone designated by the court for the support of such dependent and neglected child. (Source: P.A. 77-2350.) Section 97. The Adoption Act is amended by changing Section 1 as follows: (750 ILCS 50/1) (from Ch. 40, par. 1501) Sec. 1. Definitions.

A child whose parent has executed a final irrevocable consent to adoption or a final irrevocable surrender for purposes of adoption, or whose parent has had his or her parental rights terminated, is not a related child to that person, unless the consent is determined to be void or is void pursuant to subsection O of Section 10. C. "Agency" for the purpose of this Act means a public child welfare agency or a licensed child welfare agency. D. "Unfit person" means any person whom the court shall find to be unfit to have a child, without regard to the likelihood that the child will be placed for adoption. The grounds of unfitness are any one or more of the following, except that a person shall not be considered an unfit person for the sole reason that the person has relinquished a child in accordance with the Abandoned Newborn Infant Protection Act: (a) Abandonment of the child. (a-1) Abandonment of a newborn infant in a hospital. (a-2) Abandonment of a newborn infant in any setting where the evidence suggests that the parent intended to relinquish his or her parental rights. (b) Failure to maintain a reasonable degree of interest, concern or responsibility as to the child's welfare. (c) Desertion of the child for more than 3 months next preceding the commencement of the Adoption proceeding. (d) Substantial neglect of the child if continuous or repeated. (d-1) Substantial neglect, if continuous or repeated, of any child residing in the household which resulted in the death of that child. (e) Extreme or repeated cruelty to the child. (f) Two or more findings of physical abuse to any children under Section 4-8 of the Juvenile Court Act or Section 2-21 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the most recent of which was determined by the juvenile court hearing the matter to be supported by clear and convincing evidence; a criminal conviction or a finding of not guilty by reason of insanity resulting from the death of any child by physical child abuse; or a finding of physical child abuse resulting from the death of any child under Section 4-8 of the Juvenile Court Act or Section 2-21 of the Juvenile Court Act of
[May 2, 2001] 18 1987. (g) Failure to protect the child from conditions within his environment injurious to the child's welfare. (h) Other neglect of, or misconduct toward the child; provided that in making a finding of unfitness the court hearing the adoption proceeding shall not be bound by any previous finding, order or judgment affecting or determining the rights of the parents toward the child sought to be adopted in any other proceeding except such proceedings terminating parental rights as shall be had under either this Act, the Juvenile Court Act or the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. (i) Depravity. Conviction of any one of the following crimes shall create a presumption that a parent is depraved which can be overcome only by clear and convincing evidence: (1) first degree murder in violation of paragraph 1 or 2 of subsection (a) of Section 9-1 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or conviction of second degree murder in violation of subsection (a) of Section 9-2 of the Criminal Code of 1961 of a parent of the child to be adopted; (2) first degree murder or second degree murder of any child in violation of the Criminal Code of 1961; (3) attempt or conspiracy to commit first degree murder or second degree murder of any child in violation of the Criminal Code of 1961; (4) solicitation to commit murder of any child, solicitation to commit murder of any child for hire, or solicitation to commit second degree murder of any child in violation of the Criminal Code of 1961; or (5) aggravated criminal sexual assault in violation of Section 12-14(b)(1) of the Criminal Code of 1961. There is a rebuttable presumption that a parent is depraved if the parent has been criminally convicted of at least 3 felonies under the laws of this State or any other state, or under federal law, or the criminal laws of any United States territory; and at least one of these convictions took place within 5 years of the filing of the petition or motion seeking termination of parental rights. There is a rebuttable presumption that a parent is depraved if that parent has been criminally convicted of either first or second degree murder of any person as defined in the Criminal Code of 1961 within 10 years of the filing date of the petition or motion to terminate parental rights. (j) Open and notorious adultery or fornication. (j-1) (Blank). (k) Habitual drunkenness or addiction to drugs, other than those prescribed by a physician, for at least one year immediately prior to the commencement of the unfitness proceeding.

(l) Failure to demonstrate a reasonable degree of interest, concern or responsibility as to the welfare of a new born child during the first 30 days after its birth. (m) Failure by a parent (i) to make reasonable efforts to correct the conditions that were the basis for the removal of the child from the parent, or (ii) to make reasonable progress toward the return of the child to the parent within 9 months after an adjudication of neglected or abused minor under Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 or dependent minor under Section 2-4 of that Act, or (iii) to make reasonable progress toward the return of
19 [May 2, 2001] the child to the parent during any 9-month period after the end of the initial 9-month period following the adjudication of neglected or abused minor under Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 or dependent minor under Section 2-4 of that Act. If a service plan has been established as required under Section 8.2 of the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act to correct the conditions that were the basis for the removal of the child from the parent and if those services were available, then, for purposes of this Act, "failure to make reasonable progress toward the return of the child to the parent" includes (I) the parent's failure to substantially fulfill his or her obligations under the service plan and correct the conditions that brought the child into care within 9 months after the adjudication under Section 2-3 or 2-4 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 and (II) the parent's failure to substantially fulfill his or her obligations under the service plan and correct the conditions that brought the child into care during any 9-month period after the end of the initial 9-month period following the adjudication under Section 2-3 or 2-4 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. (m-1) Pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, a child has been in foster care for 15 months out of any 22 month period which begins on or after the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1998 unless the child's parent can prove by a preponderance of the evidence that it is more likely than not that it will be in the best interests of the child to be returned to the parent within 6 months of the date on which a petition for termination of parental rights is filed under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. The 15 month time limit is tolled during any period for which there is a court finding that the appointed custodian or guardian failed to make reasonable efforts to reunify the child with his or her family, provided that (i) the finding of no reasonable efforts is made within 60 days of the period when reasonable efforts were not made or (ii) the parent filed a motion requesting a finding of no reasonable efforts within 60 days of the period when reasonable efforts were not made. For purposes of this subdivision (m-1), the date of entering foster care is the earlier of: (i) the date of a judicial finding at an adjudicatory hearing that the child is an abused, neglected, or dependent minor; or (ii) 60 days after the date on which the child is removed from his or her parent, guardian, or legal custodian. (n) Evidence of intent to forgo his or her parental rights, whether or not the child is a ward of the court, (1) as manifested by his or her failure for a period of 12 months: (i) to visit the child, (ii) to communicate with the child or agency, although able to do so and not prevented from doing so by an agency or by court order, or (iii) to maintain contact with or plan for the future of the child, although physically able to do so, or (2) as manifested by the father's failure, where he and the mother of the child were unmarried to each other at the time of the child's birth, (i) to commence legal proceedings to establish his paternity under the Illinois Parentage Act of 1984 or the law of the jurisdiction of the child's birth within 30 days of being informed, pursuant to Section 12a of this Act, that he is the father or the likely father of the child or, after being so informed where the child is not yet born, within 30 days of the child's birth, or (ii) to make a good faith effort to pay a reasonable amount of the expenses related to the birth of the child and to provide a reasonable amount for the financial support of the child, the court to consider in its determination all relevant circumstances, including the financial condition of both parents; provided that the ground for termination provided in this subparagraph (n)(2)(ii) shall only be available where the petition is brought by the mother or the husband of the mother. Contact or communication by a parent with his or her child that does not demonstrate affection and concern does not constitute reasonable contact and planning under subdivision (n). In the
[May 2, 2001] 20 absence of evidence to the contrary, the ability to visit, communicate, maintain contact, pay expenses and plan for the future shall be presumed. The subjective intent of the parent, whether expressed or otherwise, unsupported by evidence of the foregoing parental acts manifesting that intent, shall not preclude a determination that the parent has intended to forgo his or her parental rights. In making this determination, the court may consider but shall not require a showing of diligent efforts by an authorized agency to encourage the parent to perform the acts specified in subdivision (n). It shall be an affirmative defense to any allegation under paragraph (2) of this subsection that the father's failure was due to circumstances beyond his control or to impediments created by the mother or any other person having legal custody. Proof of that fact need only be by a preponderance of the evidence. (o) Repeated or continuous failure by the parents, although physically and financially able, to provide the child with adequate food, clothing, or shelter. (p) Inability to discharge parental responsibilities supported by competent evidence from a psychiatrist, licensed clinical social worker, or clinical psychologist of mental impairment, mental illness or mental retardation as defined in Section 1-116 of the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code, or developmental disability as defined in Section 1-106 of that Code, and there is sufficient justification to believe that the inability to discharge parental responsibilities shall extend beyond a reasonable time period. However, this subdivision (p) shall not be construed so as to permit a licensed clinical social worker to conduct any medical diagnosis to determine mental illness or mental impairment. (q) The parent has been criminally convicted of aggravated battery, heinous battery, or attempted murder of any child. (r) The child is in the temporary custody or guardianship of the Department of Children and Family Services, the parent is incarcerated as a result of criminal conviction at the time the petition or motion for termination of parental rights is filed, prior to incarceration the parent had little or no contact with the child or provided little or no support for the child, and the parent's incarceration will prevent the parent from discharging his or her parental responsibilities for the child for a period in excess of 2 years after the filing of the petition or motion for termination of parental rights. (s) The child is in the temporary custody or guardianship of the Department of Children and Family Services, the parent is incarcerated at the time the petition or motion for termination of parental rights is filed, the parent has been repeatedly incarcerated as a result of criminal convictions, and the parent's repeated incarceration has prevented the parent from discharging his or her parental responsibilities for the child. (t) A finding that at birth the child's blood, urine, or meconium contained any amount of a controlled substance as defined in subsection (f) of Section 102 of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or a metabolite of a controlled substance, with the exception of controlled substances or metabolites of such substances, the presence of which in the newborn infant was the result of medical treatment administered to the mother or the newborn infant, and that the biological mother of this child is the biological mother of at least one other child who was adjudicated a neglected minor under subsection (c) of Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, after which the biological mother had the opportunity to enroll in and participate in a clinically appropriate substance abuse counseling, treatment, and rehabilitation program. E. "Parent" means the father or mother of a legitimate or illegitimate child. For the purpose of this Act, a person who has executed a final and irrevocable consent to adoption or a final and

A person is available for adoption when the person is: (a) a child who has been surrendered for adoption to an agency and to whose adoption the agency has thereafter consented; (b) a child to whose adoption a person authorized by law, other than his parents, has consented, or to whose adoption no consent is required pursuant to Section 8 of this Act; (c) a child who is in the custody of persons who intend to adopt him through placement made by his parents; (c-1) a child for whom a parent has signed a specific consent pursuant to subsection O of Section 10; or (d) an adult who meets the conditions set forth in Section 3 of this Act; or. (e) a child who has been relinquished as defined in Section 10 of the Abandoned Newborn Infant Protection Act.

This 6 month limit shall not include periods of confinement given pursuant to a sentence of county impact incarceration under Section 5-8-1.2. Persons committed to imprisonment as a condition of probation or conditional discharge shall not be committed to the Department of Corrections. (f) The court may combine a sentence of periodic imprisonment under Article 7 or a sentence to a county impact incarceration program under Article 8 with a sentence of probation or conditional discharge.

(h) Jurisdiction over an offender may be transferred from the sentencing court to the court of another circuit with the concurrence of both courts, or to another state under an Interstate Probation Reciprocal Agreement as provided in Section 3-3-11. Further transfers or retransfers of jurisdiction are also authorized in the same manner. The court to which jurisdiction has been transferred shall have the
[May 2, 2001] 46 same powers as the sentencing court. (i) The court shall impose upon an offender sentenced to probation after January 1, 1989 or to conditional discharge after January 1, 1992, as a condition of such probation or conditional discharge, a fee of $25 for each month of probation or conditional discharge supervision ordered by the court, unless after determining the inability of the person sentenced to probation or conditional discharge to pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser fee. The court may not impose the fee on a minor who is made a ward of the State under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 while the minor is in placement. The fee shall be imposed only upon an offender who is actively supervised by the probation and court services department. The fee shall be collected by the clerk of the circuit court. The clerk of the circuit court shall pay all monies collected from this fee to the county treasurer for deposit in the probation and court services fund under Section 15.1 of the Probation and Probation Officers Act.

The State Finance Act is amended by adding Section 5.545 as follows: (30 ILCS 105/5.545 new) Sec. 5.545. The Illinois Future Teacher Corps Scholarship Fund. Section 10. The Higher Education Student Assistance Act is amended by adding Section 65.65 as follows:
47 [May 2, 2001] (110 ILCS 947/65.65 new) Sec. 65.65. Illinois Future Teacher Corps Scholarships. (a) In this Section: "Fees" means matriculation, graduation, activity, term, or incidental fees. "Fees" does not include any other fees, including book rental, service, laboratory, supply, and union building fees, hospital and medical insurance fees, and any fees established for the operation and maintenance of buildings the income of which is pledged to the payment of interest and principal on bonds issued by the governing board of an institution of higher learning. "Shortage" means an unfilled teaching position or one that is filled but is occupied by a person who is not fully certified by the State for that teaching position at the start of the school year. "Scholarship" means an Illinois Future Teacher Corps Scholarship. "Tuition and other necessary fees" includes the customary charge for instruction and use of facilities in general and the additional fixed fees charged for specified purposes that are required generally of non-scholarship recipients for each academic term for which the recipient of a scholarship under this Section actually enrolls. "Tuition and other necessary fees" does not include fees payable only once or breakage fees and other contingent deposits that are refundable in whole or in part. "Tuition and other necessary fees" does not include expenses for any sectarian or denominational instruction, for the construction or maintenance of sectarian or denominational facilities, or for any other sectarian or denominational purposes or activity. (b) A program is created to provide new teacher training scholarships, to be known as Illinois Future Teacher Corps Scholarships. The scholarships are for full-time undergraduate and graduate students pursuing studies at qualified institutions of higher learning leading to teacher certification in this State. To receive a scholarship, a graduate student must be seeking retraining, from another field, to enter a teaching career. No more than half of the scholarships shall be awarded to graduate students seeking retraining. (c) The Commission, in accordance with rules adopted for the program created under this Section, shall provide funding, determine the eligibility of applicants, and designate each year's new recipients from among those applicants who qualify for consideration by showing: (1) that he or she is a resident of this State and a citizen or a lawful permanent resident alien of the United States; (2) that he or she (i) has successfully completed the program of instruction at an approved high school or (ii) is a student in good standing at that school and is enrolled in a program of instruction that will be completed by the end of the school year and, in either event, that his or her cumulative grade point average was or is in the upper one-third of his or her high school class; (3) that he or she has a superior capacity to profit by a higher education; and (4) that he or she intends to teach in an elementary or secondary school in this State. (d) If for any academic year the number of qualified applicants exceeds the number of scholarships to be awarded, the Commission shall prioritize the awarding of scholarships to applicants by considering (i) identified teacher shortage areas established by the State Board of Education and (ii) an applicant's cumulative class rank in high school or, for graduate student applicants, total undergraduate cumulative grade point average. (e) Unless otherwise indicated, scholarships shall be good for a period of up to 4 academic years while the recipient is enrolled for full-time residence credit at a qualified institution of higher learning. Each academic year, the scholarship shall cover tuition and other necessary fees for 2 semesters plus the summer session or 4 quarters. For purposes of calculating scholarship assistance for recipients attending private institutions of higher learning, tuition and other necessary fees for students at private institutions shall not
[May 2, 2001] 48 exceed the average tuition and other necessary fees for students at State universities for the academic year in which the scholarship is made. (f) Before receiving scholarship assistance, a scholarship recipient shall be required by the Commission to sign an agreement under which the recipient pledges that, within the 5-year period following the completion of the academic program for which the recipient was awarded a scholarship, the recipient (i) shall teach for a period of not less than 4 years for each academic year of scholarship assistance that he or she was awarded, (ii) shall fulfill this teaching obligation at a public or nonprofit private preschool, elementary school, or secondary school in this State, and (iii) shall, upon request by the Commission, provide the Commission with evidence that he or she is fulfilling or has fulfilled the terms of the teaching agreement provided for in this subsection (f). (g) If a scholarship recipient fails to fulfill the teaching obligation set forth in subsection (f) of this Section, the Commission shall require the recipient to repay the amount of the scholarship assistance received, at a rate of interest equal to 5%, and, if applicable, reasonable collection fees. The Commission may establish rules relating to its collection activities for the repayment of scholarships. All repayments collected under this Section shall be forwarded to the State Comptroller for deposit into the General Revenue Fund. A scholarship recipient shall not be considered in violation of the agreement entered into pursuant to subsection (f) of this Section if the recipient (i) enrolls on a full-time basis as a graduate student in a course of study related to the field of teaching at a qualified institution of higher learning, (ii) is serving as a member of the armed services of the United States for a period of time not to exceed 3 years, (iii) is temporarily totally disabled for a period of time not to exceed 3 years, as established by sworn affidavit of a qualified physician, (iv) is seeking and unable to find full-time employment as a teacher at a public or nonprofit private preschool, elementary school, or secondary school that satisfies the criteria set forth in subsection (f) of this Section and is able to provide evidence of that fact, or (v) becomes permanently totally disabled, as established by sworn affidavit of a qualified physician. No claim for repayment may be filed against the estate of a decedent or incompetent. Each person applying for a scholarship shall be provided with a copy of this subsection (g) at the time he or she applies for the scholarship. (h) The Commission may prescribe, by rule, detailed provisions concerning the computation of tuition and other necessary fees, which must not be inconsistent with this Section. (i) If an applicant for a scholarship under this Section accepts another teacher preparation scholarship administered by the Commission for the same academic year as the scholarship under this Section, that applicant shall not be eligible for a scholarship under this Section. (j) To continue receiving scholarship assistance, a scholarship recipient must remain a full-time student and must maintain a cumulative grade point average at the postsecondary level of no less than 2.5 on a 4.0 scale. (k) A scholarship shall not be awarded to or continued for anyone who has been convicted of a criminal offense that would disqualify that person from receiving teacher certification in this State. (l) If a scholarship recipient satisfies the president of the institution of higher learning in which the recipient is enrolled (or someone designated by the president) that the recipient requires a leave of absence for the purpose of earning funds to defray his or her expenses while enrolled in the institution, for study abroad or internship study, or on account of illness or military service, then leave may be granted for a period of time not to exceed 6 years (with time spent in the armed forces not included as part of this time limit) without violating the agreement entered into pursuant to subsection (f) of this Section.
49 [May 2, 2001] (m) Scholarship amounts due to an institution of higher learning shall be payable by the Comptroller to that institution on vouchers approved by the Commission. (n) The Commission shall administer the program created under this Section and shall adopt all necessary and proper rules not inconsistent with this Section for the program's effective implementation. All applications for scholarship assistance shall be made to the Commission in a form as set forth by the Commission. The form of application and the information required to be set forth in the application shall be determined by the Commission, and the Commission shall require applicants to submit with their applications any supporting documents that the Commission deems necessary. (o) If an appropriation to the Commission for a given fiscal year is insufficient to provide scholarships to all qualified applicants, then the Commission shall allocate the available scholarship funds for that fiscal year on the basis of the date the Commission receives a complete application form from a qualified applicant. Section 15. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended by adding Section 3-648 as follows: (625 ILCS 5/3-648 new) Sec. 3-648. Education license plates. (a) The Secretary, upon receipt of an application made in the form prescribed by the Secretary, may issue special registration plates designated as Education license plates. The special plates issued under this Section shall be affixed only to passenger vehicles of the first division and motor vehicles of the second division weighing not more than 8,000 pounds. Plates issued under this Section shall expire according to the multi-year procedure established by Section 3-414.1 of this Code. (b) The design and color of the plates shall be determined by a contest that every elementary school pupil in the State of Illinois is eligible to enter. The designs submitted for the contest shall be judged on September 30, 2002, and the winning design shall be selected by a committee composed of the Secretary, the Director of State Police, 2 members of the Senate, one member chosen by the President of the Senate and one member chosen by the Senate Minority Leader, and 2 members of the House of Representatives, one member chosen by the Speaker of the House and one member chosen by the House Minority Leader. The Secretary may allow the plates to be issued as vanity or personalized plates under Section 3-405.1 of the Code. The Secretary shall prescribe stickers or decals as provided under Section 3-412 of this Code. (c) An applicant for the special plate shall be charged a $40 fee for original issuance, in addition to the appropriate registration fee. Of this $40 additional original issuance fee, $15 shall be deposited into the Secretary of State Special License Plate Fund, to be used by the Secretary to help defray the administrative processing costs, and $25 shall be deposited into the Illinois Future Teacher Corps Scholarship Fund. For each registration renewal period, a $40 fee, in addition to the appropriate registration fee, shall be charged. Of this $40 additional renewal fee, $2 shall be deposited into the Secretary of State Special License Plate Fund and $38 shall be deposited into the Illinois Future Teacher Corps Scholarship Fund. Each fiscal year, once deposits from the additional original issuance and renewal fees into the Secretary of State Special License Plate Fund have reached $500,000, all the amounts received for the additional fees for the balance of the fiscal year shall be deposited into the Illinois Future Teacher Corps Scholarship Fund. (d) The Illinois Future Teacher Corps Scholarship Fund is created as a special fund in the State treasury. All moneys in the Illinois Future Teacher Corps Scholarship Fund shall be appropriated to the Illinois Student Assistance Commission for scholarships under Section 65.65 of the Higher Education Student Assistance Act. Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon becoming law.".
