Illinois Intake is the process of filing a case with the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (CFS). It is the first step to begin the process of seeking services from CFS. The purpose of the intake process is to assess the reported situation and determine if a referral should be made for services or an investigation should be conducted. The intake process includes collecting relevant information from the individual or family and documenting the information in the client's case record. SCR 218 Case Management Order is a court order issued by the Juvenile Court of the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois. This order is issued to ensure that CFS provides certain services to children and families who are involved in the juvenile justice system. The order outlines the services that must be provided by CFS, including case management, court advocacy, and service coordination. The order also outlines the rights of the child or family to receive these services. There are two types of SCR 218 Case Management Orders: an Initial Order and an Ongoing Order. The Initial Order is issued when a child or family is first referred to CFS for services while the Ongoing Order is issued to renew services when the case is reviewed by the court.
