Parenting Classes in Will County - status as of October 2022

Illinois' Supreme Court Rules require that anyone getting a divorce complete parenting classes before the divorce is granted. In Will County judges often require that the parents complete the parenting classes in paternity cases as well. Sometimes the requirement can be waived when the only minor child is 17 years old. IMPORTANT: You will not be able to complete your divorce unless the parent that files for the divorce completes the parenting class and has his or her certificate of completion at the final court date. If the parent that didn't file the divorce refuses or fails to complete the class, the judge usually suspends his or her court-ordered parenting time/visitation - at least  until the class is completed and the certificate filed with the court.

Pareting Classes are now sponsored by Catholic Charities in Will County and requires you to regtister online at https://catholiccharitiesjoliet.org/project-protect/ - The cost of the class is $100 and they want a $20 deposit to register.

If you can not do the class locally, you should ask the judge for permission to take it online or through a diferent county (DuPage, Cook, etc). Most Will County judges require an in person attendance at the Project Protect Program class unless yu are given permission to take it either online at though a different program.
