Which act establishes the licensing regulations governing child welfare agencies, foster family homes, and individual day care providers?

  1. Child Care Act

  2. Adoption Act

  3. Children and Family Services Act

  4. Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act (ANCRA)

The correct answer is: Child Care Act

The correct answer is A. Child Care Act. The Child Care Act in Illinois establishes the licensing regulations that govern child welfare agencies, foster family homes, and individual day care providers. This act sets the standards and requirements for these entities to ensure the safety, well-being, and proper care of children in their care. The other options are incorrect: - The Adoption Act (Option B) specifically pertains to regulations and procedures related to adoption services and does not cover the licensing regulations for child welfare agencies, foster family homes, and day care providers. - The Children and Family Services Act (Option C) focuses on the provision of child welfare services and the protection and care of children but does not specifically address licensing regulations for child welfare agencies, foster family homes, and individual day care providers. - The Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act (Option D) requires certain professionals to report suspected cases of child abuse or neglect but does not establish the licensing regulations for child welfare agencies, foster family homes, and individual day care providers.
