Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.


405 ILCS 125/25

    (405 ILCS 125/25)
    Sec. 25. Participating Community Mental Health Centers and housing service provider responsibilities for locating and transitioning the individual into housing, assisting in retaining housing, and the provision of engagement and recovery support services. The Department of Human Services, Division of Mental Health, shall select interested Community Mental Health Centers that are certified pursuant to 59 Ill. Adm. Code 132 and interested housing service providers for participation in the Housing is Recovery program.
        (1) For purposes of incentivizing continuity of care,
    
the same participating Community Mental Health Center may be responsible for providing both the housing support and the mental health or substance use engagement, recovery support services and treatment to a subsidy holder. If a housing support services provider does not also provide the mental health or substance use treatment services the individual engages in, there must be strong coordination of care between the housing services provider and the treatment provider.
        (2) The provider must demonstrate that the rental
    
units secured through this program pass minimum quality inspection standards.
        (3) Community Mental Health Centers providing housing
    
support through this program shall be responsible for any SOAR applications for a subsidy holder that has a psychiatric disability who does not have SSI or SSDI if the subsidy holder chooses to apply for disability. A housing services provider delivering the housing support services through this program must contract with a Community Mental Health Center to provide assistance with SOAR applications to subsidy holders electing to apply for SSI or SSDI within 6 months of the subsidy holder receiving the subsidy.
        (4) Service providers shall be permitted to engage in
    
master leasing to secure apartments for those who are hard to house due to criminal backgrounds, history of substance use and stigma.
