Per Public Act 103-0504, school districts will collaborate with IDHS and ISBE to ensure that all students with disabilities and the parents or guardians of those students are informed about the PUNS database, including how to enroll for registration in the PUNS database and who they can contact for information about the database and registration process. PUNS is a statewide database that records information about individuals with developmental disabilities who are planning for or seeking services (e.g., community integrated living arrangements, home-based supports, child group homes). The state uses the data to select individuals for services as funding becomes available. Questions regarding PUNS should be directed to Carrie Wells, District Special Education Coordinator, at 618-445-2814.
