AI Summary
This bill amends the Children and Family Services Act to authorize front-line staff members, who engage with families in their home settings, to carry and use personal protection spray devices for self-defense purposes while investigating reports of child abuse or neglect. The bill requires the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS), in consultation with the Illinois State Police, to identify approved devices, develop a training curriculum, and provide funding for the training program. The bill also outlines the permitted use of these devices, requires staff members to report their use, and mandates the department to publish annual data on the use of these devices.
