Probation data Probation departments in Illinois provide services to youth adjudicated delinquent and alleged youth offenders whose cases are diverted from the juvenile court. Probation departments can provide informal probation supervision to alleged youth offenders on whom no delinquency petition has been filed. Additionally, probation departments can oversee youth whose cases are petitioned to court but have not been formally adjudicated. These types of probation cases or petitions may receive a continuance under court supervision order, requiring youth monitoring by the probation department for up to 24 months. While on supervision, the youth must meet special conditions, such as attending counseling sessions or completing community service work. The case is dismissed if the youth successfully completes the provisions of his or her supervision. The primary function of formal probation is to provide the court with investigative and case supervision services for adjudicated delinquents. Youth adjudicated delinquent can be sentenced to probation for a maximum of five years or until age 21, whichever comes first. Youth who are non-delinquent but subject to conditions imposed by the court, such as minors requiring authoritative intervention, may receive supervision or supervised probation to ensure they follow requirements set by the court. Probation departments also oversee court-ordered services and programs to which youth probationers are sentenced at disposition. Such services and programs include, but are not limited to, alcohol and drug treatment, mental health treatment, Treatment Alternatives for Safe Communities, Inc. (TASC) programs, Unified Delinquency Intervention Services programs, and Job Training Participation Act programs. Probationers may also receive community service and be ordered to pay victim restitution costs. Youth may also be removed from their homes, or in some cases require placement in a foster home, group home, residential treatment center, or placement with a relative. AOIC collects aggregate-level active probation caseload information on the number of youth receiving informal supervision, those whose cases were continued under supervision, and those who are on formal county probation. These data, along with data on services ordered and youth placements, are shown in the data tables section in Appendix H. Data summary Probation caseloads Probation caseloads include only the number of active youth probation cases open on Dec. 31, 2007. A 14 percent decline was recorded in active standard probation cases from 2002 to 2007. There were 11,359 active probation cases in 2002 and 9,768 cases in 2007. 44
The rate of formal probation cases statewide decreased 19 percent from 955 formal probation cases for every 100,000 youth ages 10 to 16 in 1997 to 779 in 2007; and decreased 12 percent from 888 in 2002. After peaking in 1999 at 973, the rate began to steadily decrease. In 2007, the state rate of active youth probation cases was 779 per 100,000 youth age 10 to 16. Figure 18 depicts the rate of youth probation cases by region from 1997 to 2007.

Their caseload rate remained relatively stable, increasing only 12 percent between 1997 and 2007. In 2007, the Central region had an active youth probation caseload rate of 1,383 for every 100,000 youth ages 10 to 16. Cook County experienced the largest decrease in its rates of formal probation cases. Between 1997 and 2007, the rate decreased 32 percent from 952 to 650. The Southern region of Illinois experienced a 1 percent decrease from 825 in 1997 to 848 in 2007. The Northern region of Illinois, not including Cook County, had a 23 percent decrease in their rates from 741 in 1997 to 637 in 2007.
