Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act and the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. Provides that a "neglected child" includes a child who has been provided with interim crisis intervention services under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 and whose parent, guardian, or custodian refuses to permit the child to return home. Requires the DCFS Child Protective Service Unit to begin an investigation of a report concerning such a child within 24 hours after receiving the report and determine whether to take the child into temporary protective custody and whether to file a petition alleging neglect or abuse. Provides that no minor shall be sheltered in a temporary living arrangement for more than 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and court-designated holidays, when the agency has reported the minor as neglected or abused because the parent, guardian, or custodian refuses to permit the child to return home, provided that in all other instances the minor may be sheltered when the agency obtains the consent of the parent, guardian, or custodian or documents its unsuccessful efforts to obtain the consent or authority of the parent, guardian, or custodian, including recording the date and the staff involved in all telephone calls, telegrams, letters, and personal contacts to obtain the consent or authority, in which instances the minor may be so sheltered for not more than 21 days.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Provides that a minor who has been provided with interim crisis intervention services and whose parent, guardian, or custodian refuses to permit the minor to return home shall be considered a neglected minor unless the minor is an immediate physical danger to himself, herself, or others living in the home. Provides that if the Department of Children and Family Services determines that the minor is not a neglected minor because the minor is an immediate physical danger to himself, herself, or others living in the home, then the Department shall take immediate steps to either secure the minor's immediate admission to a mental health facility, arrange for law enforcement authorities to take temporary custody of the minor as a delinquent minor, or take other appropriate action to assume protective custody in order to safeguard the minor or others living in the home from immediate physical danger.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 3
Provides that the provision requiring the Department of Children and Family Services to take the minor into temporary protective custody at any time after receiving the report of child neglect is subject to appropriation.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 4
Provides that the reporting of the minor as neglected to the Department of Children and Family Services shall only be made if the parent, guardian, or custodian refuses to permit the minor to return home, and no other living arrangement agreeable to the minor and the parent, guardian, or custodian can be made.

House Amendment No. 1
Provides that a neglected child includes a child whose parent, guardian, or custodian refuses to permit the child to return home and no other living arrangement agreeable to the parent, guardian, or custodian can be made, and the parent, guardian, or custodian has not made any other appropriate living arrangement for the child (rather than a child whose parent, guardian, or custodian refuses to permit the child to return home and no other living arrangement agreeable to the minor and the parent, guardian, or custodian can be made).
