Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
(305 ILCS 5/9-8) (from Ch. 23, par. 9-8)
Sec. 9-8. Extension of Coverage.) If appropriate and sufficient facilities
are not available through
other agencies, the Illinois
Department may extend those services provided in this Article which
relate to work adjustment, education, training, and counseling and
guidance on problems of child care, family relationships, home and money
management, transportation, and health, to one or both of the following:
(1) persons and families who have been recipients of |
| aid within 1 year preceding their request for the services, and who are likely to become recipients of aid again unless needed services are provided;
|
|
(2) other persons and families who request the
|
| services and whose economic, personal or social situation is such as to make it likely that without counseling, training or other services financial aid could reasonably be expected to be required within 6 months.
|
|
The services may be continued for such time as may be necessary to
overcome the conditions which may result in dependency upon financial
aid but each case shall be reviewed at least quarterly to assure that
the services are not continued beyond a reasonable period of time.
Any extension of services under the foregoing provisions shall be
limited to a pilot county or counties, or other test area, until the
cost and effectiveness of the services provided are determined to be in
the public interest.
The Illinois Department may also extend the educational and
vocational training programs provided under Section 9-5 or Section 9-7
to persons whose income does not exceed the standard established to
determine eligibility for aid as a medically indigent person under
Article V, subject to the minimum quarterly review requirement
established in this Section for persons designated in subparagraphs (1)
and (2).
