Adds reference to:
325 ILCS 5/7.4from Ch. 23, par. 2057.4

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. Provides that subject to appropriations or the availability of other funds for this purpose, the Department of Children and Family Services may implement a 5-year pilot program of a domestic violence co-location program to improve child welfare interventions provided to families experiencing domestic violence in part by enhancing the safety and stability of children, reducing the number of children removed from their parents, and improving outcomes for children within their families through a strength-based and trauma-informed collaborative support program. Provides that the pilot program shall occur in no fewer than 3 Department offices and that additional sites may be added and the pilot program may be expanded and converted into a permanent statewide program. Requires the Department to adopt rules and procedures and to develop and facilitate training for the effective implementation of the domestic violence co-location program. Requires the Department to track, collect, report on, and share data about domestic violence-affected families, including, but not limited to, data related to hotline calls, investigations, protective custody, cases referred to the juvenile court, and outcomes of the domestic violence co-location program. Permits the Department to arrange for an independent, evidence-based evaluation of the domestic violence co-location program to determine whether it is meeting its goals. Provides that the independent evidence-based evaluation may contain certain data including data regarding: (i) the number of children removed from their parents; (ii) the number of children who remain with the non-offending parent; and (iii) the number of indicated and unfounded investigative findings and corresponding allegations of maltreatment for the non-offending parent and domestic violence perpetrator. Provides that following the expiration of the 5-year pilot program or prior to the expiration of the pilot program, if there is evidence that the pilot program is effective, the domestic violence co-location program may expand into each county, investigative office of the Department, or purchase of service or other contracted private agency delivering intact family or foster care services in Illinois. Provides that the provisions shall not be construed to breach the confidentiality protections provided under State law to domestic violence professionals, including co-located certified domestic violence advocates, in the provision of services to domestic violence victims as employees of certified domestic violence agencies or to any individual who receives services from certified domestic violence agencies.
