How to Contact Kmetko & Associates, Ltd. for More Information

Updated

Kmetko & Associates, Ltd. does not publish a phone number, email address, or mailing address in the page content available here, so the reliable way to reach the agency is through the contact page or contact form on kmetko.com. That applies whether your question is about interstate child placement, adoption, licensing, or supervision services. If you need a named person rather than a general inbox, the staff list on the site identifies who handles which function, which helps you route your inquiry correctly the first time.

What the site tells you before you reach out

Kmetko & Associates is a licensed private child welfare agency based in Illinois. It began in 1990 when Tom Kmetko started assisting the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (IDCFS) with interstate child placements, and it now describes itself as a leading private agency working in adoption, licensing, and supervision as well. The site states that the agency supports over 220 children each year and handles hundreds of home study requests.

That context matters for your inquiry: the agency works with state agencies and families on Illinois placements, so questions from outside Illinois generally fall under its interstate services rather than a general family-services line.

Who to ask for, by topic

The staff directory on the site lists roles rather than direct contact details. Use it to decide what to write in your message or who to ask for if you call a main line.

Your question is about Role to address
Starting an inquiry, new requests Intake Specialist (Daniela Celis, BA)
Interstate placement process Interstate Services Supervisors (Anissa Dean, LCSW; Celeste Richmond, LCSW; Semah Shammas, LCSW)
Adoption Agency leadership and interstate services staff listed on the site
Licensing Interstate Services Licensing Supervisor and Licensing Representatives
Overall direction or escalation Executive Director (Fred Dillon, LCSW) or Executive Chairman (Tom Kmetko, LCSW)

The site also lists a large group of consultants with credentials including LCSW, MSW, LSW, PhD, and LMFT, which suggests clinical and assessment capacity beyond the core staff.

Steps to get a response

  1. Go to kmetko.com and open the contact page or contact form. This is the only contact route supported by the available page content.
  2. State your situation in one or two sentences: whether you are a family in Illinois, a family in another state, or a state agency making a referral.
  3. Name the service you need — interstate placement, adoption, licensing, home study, or supervision.
  4. Include the state involved if your case crosses state lines, since interstate placement is the agency's founding specialty.
  5. If you want a specific person, name the role from the table above rather than only a job title, and ask that your message be routed to them.

Expected result: your inquiry reaches the correct service area instead of sitting in a general queue, and you get a reply from someone whose role matches your question.

Common snags

  • No published phone or email in the available content. Do not assume a number you find elsewhere is current; start from the site's own contact page.
  • Confusing the agency with a state office. Kmetko & Associates is a private agency that collaborates with state agencies such as IDCFS. If your question is about a state benefits case or a court matter, the state agency is the right first stop.
  • Assuming services are free or open to everyone. The site does not state fees, eligibility rules, or whether inquiries are accepted from the public, so ask about eligibility and cost directly in your message.
  • Sending a detailed case history in a first message. A short summary plus a request for the right contact person is usually enough to get routed correctly.

What to have ready

Before you write, gather the basics: the child's or family's state, the type of placement or service involved, any state agency already working on the case, and a clear question. That lets the intake specialist or interstate services supervisor answer in one reply instead of a back-and-forth.
