Public Act 103-0728 | ||||
| ||||
AN ACT concerning criminal law. | ||||
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, | ||||
represented in the General Assembly: | ||||
Section 5. The Illinois Crime Reduction Act of 2009 is | ||||
amended by changing Section 20 as follows: | ||||
(730 ILCS 190/20) | ||||
Sec. 20. Adult Redeploy Illinois. | ||||
(a) Purpose. When justice-impacted individuals offenders | ||||
are accurately assessed for risk, assets, and needs, it is | ||||
possible to identify which people should be sent to prison and | ||||
which people can be effectively supervised in the locality. By | ||||
providing financial incentives to counties or judicial | ||||
circuits to create effective local-level evidence-based | ||||
services, it is possible to reduce crime and recidivism at a | ||||
lower cost to taxpayers. Based on this model, this Act hereby | ||||
creates the Adult Redeploy Illinois program for | ||||
probation-eligible justice-impacted individuals offenders in | ||||
order to increase public safety and encourage the successful | ||||
local supervision of eligible justice-impacted individuals | ||||
offenders and their reintegration into the locality. | ||||
(a-5) For the purpose of this Section, "justice-impacted | ||||
individual" has the same meaning as "offender" in Section 5 of | ||||
this Act. |
(b) The Adult Redeploy Illinois program shall allocate | ||
reallocate State funds to local jurisdictions that | ||
successfully establish a process to assess justice-impacted | ||
individuals offenders and provide a continuum of locally based | ||
sanctions and treatment alternatives for justice-impacted | ||
individuals offenders who would be incarcerated in a State | ||
facility if those local services and sanctions did not exist. | ||
Funds shall be distributed via a grant program The allotment | ||
of funds shall be based on a formula that rewards local | ||
jurisdictions for the establishment or expansion of local | ||
supervision programs and requires them to pay the amount | ||
determined in subsection (e) if incarceration targets as | ||
defined in subsection (e) are not met. | ||
(c) Each county or circuit participating in the Adult | ||
Redeploy Illinois program shall create a local plan describing | ||
how it will protect public safety and reduce the county or | ||
circuit's utilization of incarceration in State facilities or | ||
local county jails by the creation or expansion of | ||
individualized services or programs. | ||
(d) Based on the local plan, a county or circuit shall | ||
enter into an agreement with the Adult Redeploy Oversight | ||
Board described in subsection (e) to reduce the number of | ||
commitments of probation-eligible justice-impacted | ||
individuals offenders to State correctional facilities from | ||
that county or circuit. The agreement shall include a pledge | ||
from the county or circuit to reduce their commitments by 25% |
of the level of commitments from the average number of | ||
commitments for the past 3 years of eligible justice-impacted | ||
individuals offenders . In return, the county or circuit shall | ||
receive , based upon a formula described in subsection (e), | ||
funds to redeploy for local programming for justice-impacted | ||
individuals offenders who would otherwise be incarcerated such | ||
as management and supervision, electronic monitoring, and drug | ||
testing. The county or circuit shall also be penalized, as | ||
described in subsection (e), for failure to reach the goal of | ||
reduced commitments stipulated in the agreement. | ||
(d-5) Subject to appropriation to the Illinois Criminal | ||
Justice Information Authority, the Adult Redeploy Illinois | ||
Oversight Board described in subsection (e) may provide grant | ||
