Summary
Amends the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. Provides that the Department of Children and Family Services shall maintain all unfounded reports, with some exceptions, for 12 months following the date of a final finding. Provides that unfounded reports may only be made available to the subject of the report, provided the Department has not expunged the file in accordance with certain provisions of the Act (rather than provided that the subject requests the report within 60 days of being notified that the report was unfounded). Effective immediately.

What changed in the latest version
4 added · 4 removedPlain-language change summary
The amendment to SB 2622 changes the way unfounded reports of child abuse and neglect are handled by the Department of Children and Family Services. Previously, individuals whose reports were unfounded had to request access to their report within 60 days; now, they can access their report as long as it hasn't been expunged after 12 months. This change matters because it gives individuals more control over their records and ensures they have access to information that can impact their lives, while still maintaining certain privacy protections.
