Message from the President
The Seventh Annual ILAPSC Conference was a great success. We welcomed almost 600 attendees and almost 30 exhibitors and sponsors. This was by far our largest conference ever. We hope that, if you were able to attend, you enjoyed the conference. The ILAPSC Board of Directors will be meeting for our annual retreat on November 7-8 to discuss the successes and areas for improvement of this conference, and begin planning for the 2020 ILAPSC Conference. Remember to save the date for October 14-16, 2020 at the Bloomington-Normal Marriott Conference Center.
Please remember to complete the conference evaluation, which can be found here. Certificates have already begun to be emailed out. We will be unable to issue a conference certificate if you have not completed a conference evaluation, so please make sure to do so soon.
Janet Holmgren, President
Illinois Association of Problem-Solving Courts

The Illinois Problem-Solving Court Standards and Certification and Application process were approved by the Supreme Court in November, 2015. All Problem-Solving Courts (adult courts as labeled in the Standards) have to be certified by the Supreme Court. Any new Problem-Solving Court must be certified prior to starting.
