IllinoisProbation agencies connect minors in repeat firearm cases with services
For a minor placed on probation after a repeat no-injury firearm offense, the probation agency must review the minor’s needs and share local service options with the family.
What it does
For a minor’s repeat probation case involving a firearm offense with no injury, the probation agency must assess the minor’s needs, identify local services, and share options with the family.
Argument forA needs review could help probation agencies connect minors and their families with local support suited to the young person’s needs.
Argument againstA court may require a minor to use identified services as a probation condition, which could limit the minor’s choices even when the agency only recommends it.
More detail
The probation agency must assess the minor’s needs, identify local services that may help, and share those options with the minor and their parent, guardian, or custodian. This applies when a minor is placed on probation for a firearm possession or discharge offense that caused no injury, after a prior probation placement for an offense involving firearm possession or discharge that caused no injury. The agency may recommend that the court require the minor to use identified services as a probation condition. The duties apply when the court places the minor on probation for the later offense.
