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.

(a) In addition to the provisions of subsection (3) of Section 2-27 of this Act, no placement by any probation officer or agency whose representative is an appointed guardian of the person or legal custodian of the minor may be made in an out-of-state residential treatment center unless the court has determined that the out-of-state residential placement is in the best interest and is the least restrictive, most family-like setting for the minor. The Department's application to the court to place a minor in an out-of-state residential treatment center shall include: (1) an explanation of what in State resources, if |
| any, were considered for the minor and why the minor cannot be placed in a residential treatment center or other placement in this State;
|
|
(2) an explanation as to how the out-of-state
|
| residential treatment center will impact the minor's relationships with family and other individuals important to the minor in and what steps the Department will take to preserve those relationships;
|
|
(3) an explanation as to how the Department will
|
| ensure the safety and well-being of the minor in the out-of-state residential treatment center; and
|
|
(4) an explanation as to why it is in the minor's
|
| best interest to be placed in an out-of-state residential treatment center, including a description of the minor's treatment needs and how those needs will be met in the proposed placement.
|
|
(b) If the out-of-state residential treatment center is a secure facility as defined in paragraph (18) of Section 1-3 of this Act, the requirements of Section 27.1 of this Act shall also be met prior to the minor's placement in the out-of-state residential treatment center.
(c) This Section does not apply to an out-of-state placement of a minor in a family foster home, relative foster home, a home of a parent, or a dormitory or independent living setting of a minor attending a post-secondary educational institution.
