Section 10. The Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986 is amended by changing Section 301.1 and by adding Section 307 as follows:

(750 ILCS 60/301.1) (from Ch. 40, par. 2313-1.1)

Sec. 301.1. Law enforcement policies.

(a) Every law enforcement agency shall develop, adopt, and implement written policies regarding arrest procedures for domestic violence incidents consistent with the provisions of this Act. In developing these policies, each law enforcement agency shall consult with community organizations and other law enforcement agencies with expertise in recognizing and handling domestic violence incidents.

(b) In the initial training of new recruits and every 5 years in the continuing education of law enforcement officers, every law enforcement agency shall provide training to aid in understanding the actions of domestic violence victims and abusers and to prevent further victimization of those who have been abused, focusing specifically on looking beyond the physical evidence to the psychology of domestic violence situations, such as the dynamics of the aggressor-victim relationship, separately evaluating claims where both parties claim to be the victim, and long-term effects.

Beginning January 1, 2029, for law enforcement agencies using lethality assessments, the continuing education should include training on policies and procedures for administering a lethality assessment.

The Law Enforcement Training Standards Board shall formulate and administer the training under this subsection (b) as part of the current programs for both new recruits and active law enforcement officers. The Board shall formulate the training by July 1, 2017, and implement the training statewide by July 1, 2018. In formulating the training, the Board shall work with community organizations with expertise in domestic violence to determine which topics to include. The Law Enforcement Training Standards Board shall oversee the implementation and continual administration of the training.

(750 ILCS 60/307 new)

Sec. 307. Domestic violence lethality assessments. By January 1, 2028, the Department of Human Services, in cooperation with the Illinois State Police, shall recommend a domestic violence lethality tool kit for use by law enforcement agencies. As part of this effort, the Illinois State Police and Department may engage with groups, including, but not limited to, a statewide association representing sheriffs, a statewide association representing chiefs of police, a statewide association representing State's Attorneys, a statewide association dedicated to domestic violence prevention that includes survivor voices, and an association working with victims' rights to review and provide feedback on a template. Stakeholder feedback shall be gathered and analyzed by August 1, 2027. Based on this feedback, model policies and protocols shall be developed that law enforcement agencies may use or reference in developing their domestic violence lethality assessment template, policies, protocols, training, and referrals to domestic violence services. Nothing in this Section imposes any additional liability on a law enforcement officer or agency acting in good faith administering these assessments.

Section 95. No acceleration or delay. Where this Act makes changes in a statute that is represented in this Act by text that is not yet or no longer in effect (for example, a Section represented by multiple versions), the use of that text does not accelerate or delay the taking effect of (i) the changes made by this Act or (ii) provisions derived from any other Public Act.
