TRAINING - Firearms Restraining Order Webinar

  • Price: FREE

The Illinois Attorney General’s office is hosting the Firearms Restraining Order (FRO) Webinars for Advocates. A FRO is a way for family or household members or law enforcement to ask a court to restrict a person’s access to guns, ammunition, and firearm parts when that person poses a significant danger to themselves or others. This law allows people to use these civil orders to prevent violence in their homes and community.

The webinar will cover who may seek a FRO, what the FRO prohibits, and the procedure to obtain both an emergency and a plenary FRO. The training is designed for individuals who encounter victims of violent crime throughout the judicial system, including court staff, crime victim advocates, service providers, and prosecutors. Individuals from other community organizations, mental health providers, municipalities, and schools are welcome to attend.
