Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Deletes reference to:
20 ILCS 1705/15g new

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts similar provisions, but with the following changes: Removes provisions providing that the Department of Human Services shall, no later than July 1, 2012, establish a policy to provide independent individualized assessments of individuals with developmental disabilities residing in State-operated facilities who desire, or whose parents or guardians desire, to pursue transfer to an integrated community-based residential setting. Removes the definition of the term "residential services". Redefines "support and services" to mean direct support professionals, licensed professionals, and residential services, including, but not limited to, private residences, community-integrated living arrangements, supported residential programs, supervised residential programs, or supportive housing programs (rather than direct support professionals, licensed professionals, and residential services). Effective immediately.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 3
Subjects to appropriation the Department of Human Services' geographic analysis of supports and services for individuals with developmental disabilities or mental illness. Provides that the Department may work with other State agencies to perform the geographic analysis or to gather data for purposes of performing the geographic analysis. Makes technical changes.
