Illinois creates a program at the University of Illinois to help pay vet bills for retired police dogs. A selected nonprofit runs it and may use up to 10% of yearly funds for administration. Former handlers or adopters qualify if the dog served 5+ years with one agency, 5+ years total across agencies, or 3+ years and retired because of a duty injury. You must submit a paid invoice from an Illinois veterinarian. Grants pay up to $1,500 per dog each year, with no carryover, and only while yearly funds remain. The Board of Trustees sets rules to run the program.
The Secretary of State issues Illinois Police K-9 Memorial plates for cars, motorcycles, and vehicles under 8,000 pounds. You pay $40 extra at first and $27 extra at each renewal, in addition to your registration fee. Of those fees, $15/$2 go to the Secretary of State Special License Plate Fund and $25/$25 go to the Illinois Police K-9 Memorial Fund. If 2,000 applications are not received by January 1, 2028, the state stops issuing the plate after that date.
