IL HB3365

Amends the definition of "blatant disregard" in the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act to change the standard from "risk" to "likelihood" of "serious" harm, requiring a real, significant, and imminent likelihood of serious harm to a child's health, physical well-being, or welfare

Establishes that a child is not considered neglected by a parent or caregiver solely due to exposure to domestic violence perpetrated against someone other than the child, provided that parent did not perpetrate the domestic violence

Adds "domestic violence" as a defined term in the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, referencing the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986 and Criminal Code provisions

Requires that findings of probable cause for abuse, neglect, or dependency in temporary custody and adjudicatory hearings must be based on reasons sufficient and independent from exposure to domestic violence against someone other than the minor, unless there is a demonstrated likelihood of imminent bodily harm to the minor

Modifies custody placement standards to specify that a parent's exposure to domestic violence (when they are not the perpetrator and there is no demonstrated likelihood of imminent harm to the child) cannot be the sole basis for finding the parent unfit or unable to care for the minor
