Fixed?
Correction was due December 5, 2025. Illinois DCFS does not publish whether it was made.
Most serious
Illinois DCFS does not publish a severity level for a citation, so there is no most-serious to name.

Illinois DCFS cites each subsection of a rule separately, so one audit of a filing cabinet can produce ten citations. It publishes the rule’s title and a correction deadline, but no description of what was observed.

Mid-size means licensed for 8 children, the size at least half of Chicago-area’s 3,344 licensed family homes hold. Small is 2 to 7; larger is 9 to 12.

The ages on the license are what the state licenses it to care for, which can be wider than the ages it takes.
