Who determines whether petitions will be filed and what allegations will be included?

Court Reporters
State's Attorneys
Judges
Guardians Ad Litem

The correct answer is: State's Attorneys

State's Attorneys determine whether petitions will be filed and what allegations will be included. State's Attorneys are responsible for reviewing the evidence presented to them by investigators or caseworkers and making the decision on whether to proceed with filing a petition in court. They play a crucial role in advocating for the best interests of the child and ensuring that appropriate legal action is taken in cases of child welfare concerns. Court Reporters, Judges, and Guardians Ad Litem do not have the authority to determine whether petitions will be filed or what allegations will be included in child welfare cases.
