    (410 ILCS 130/31 new)
    Sec. 31. Administration to persons with disabilities in 
park district programs.
    (a) Definitions. For purposes of this Section:
        (1) "Park district" has the meaning as defined in 
    Section 1-3 of the Park District Code. "Park district" 
    includes the Chicago Park District as defined by the 
    Chicago Park District Act, any special recreational 
    association created by a park district through an 
    intergovernmental agreement, and any nonprofit 
    organization authorized by the park district or special 
    recreational association to administer a program for 
    persons with disabilities on its behalf.
        (2) "Program participant" means a person with 
    disabilities who is a registered qualifying patient and 
    who participates in a summer camp, educational program, or 
    other similar program provided by a park district for 
    persons with disabilities.
    (b) Subject to the restrictions under subsections (c) 
through (f) of this Section, a park district shall authorize a 
program participant's parent, guardian, or other designated 
caregiver to administer a medical cannabis infused product to 
the program participant on the premises of the park district 
if both the program participant and the parent, guardian, or 
other designated caregiver are cardholders. After 
administering the medical cannabis infused product, the 
parent, guardian, or other designated caregiver shall remove 
the medical cannabis infused product from the premises of the 
park district.
    (c) A parent, guardian, or other designated caregiver may 
not administer a medical cannabis infused product under this 
Section in a manner that, in the opinion of the park district, 
would create a disruption to the park district's program or 
activity for persons with disabilities or would cause exposure 
of the medical cannabis infused product to other program 
participants.
    (d) A park district may not discipline a program 
participant who is administered a medical cannabis infused 
product by a parent, guardian, or other designated caregiver 
under this Section and may not deny the program participant's 
eligibility to attend the park district's program or activity 
for persons with disabilities solely because the program 
participant requires the administration of the medical 
cannabis infused product.
    (e) Nothing in this Section requires a member of the park 
district's staff to administer a medical cannabis infused 
product to a program participant.
    (f) A park district may not authorize the use of a medical 
cannabis infused product under this Section if the park 
district would lose federal funding as a result of the 
authorization. 
 
 
    Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon 
becoming law. 
  

Effective Date:  7/9/2021
