Plainfield · Licensed family home

Dembowski, Julie

What these mean, and where they come from

Mid-size means licensed for 8 children, the size at least half of Chicago-area’s 3,345 licensed family homes hold. Small is 2 to 7; larger is 9 to 12.

Shortlist doesn’t have these yet: cost, hours and late pickup, teaching approach, ratios and staff, a typical day, sick and biting policies.

What the state has found

Routine visits: 4 of 7 cited something

From Illinois DCFS’s published reports, last checked September 25, 2026.

Fixed?
The latest correction deadline was August 2, 2013. 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.
