Illinois HB5365 establishes supported decision-making agreements for adults with disabilities.
Illinois HB5365 amends the Probate Act of 1975 to introduce supported decision-making agreements for adults with disabilities. These agreements allow individuals to retain autonomy while receiving support in making life decisions. Supporters assist but do not make decisions for the principal. The bill outlines duties of supporters, requirements for agreements, and conditions for termination or suspension. It also mandates training for supporters and emphasizes the principal's right to revoke the agreement.
