Summary
Amends the Abused, Neglected or Dependent Minors Article of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. Restricts a court from making a finding of probable cause to believe that a minor is abused or neglected based only on a parent disclosing that the parent is the victim of domestic violence and the parent is seeking or accessing services for domestic violence. House Floor Amendment No. 2 Adds reference to: 705 ILCS 405/2-10 from Ch. 37, par. 802-10 Replaces everything after the enacting clause with the provisions of the introduced bill with the following change. Provides that the court may not enter an order to place the minor in shelter care, commit the minor to the Department of Children and Family Services, or otherwise remove the minor from the minor's home based on only a disclosure by the minor's parent, guardian, or custodian that the minor's parent, guardian, or custodian is (i) a victim of domestic violence, (ii) seeking or accessing services for domestic violence, and (iii) not living in the same home as the perpetrator of the domestic violence.
