The Illinois Supreme Court now mandates all parents and guardians involved in a divorce, allocation of parental responsibility, parenting time or paternity dispute, where children under 18 are involved, to attend a parenting class. The purpose of the class is to lessen the negative emotional impact of the process on the children, and maximize the children’s healthy psychological and social development. The class will last four hours and each party is required to take the class at different times. The completion of the class is mandatory and the Court will not complete the lawsuit until all parties have complied.
The Project Protect Total Class Fee: $100
$20 registration fee by credit/debit card.
$80 balance due the day of class prior to walking in the classroom (cash or money order only).
