HOW IS A REFERRAL MADE TO THE OFFICE OF STATE GUARDIAN?
Contact should be made with our intake number at 1-866-274-8023 (If outside the State of Illinois please dial 1-708-338-7500). If services are being requested, a Referral and Client Status form will be mailed out. When the form has been completely filled in and returned, the case will be screened by an intake worker. If a guardianship petition is to be filed requesting the appointment of OSG, an investigation will be initiated, i.e., relatives and interested parties will be contacted and the potential ward will be visited.
