Persons under 18 years of age committed to the Department of
Juvenile Justice pursuant to this Code shall be sight and
sound separate from adult offenders committed to the

(c) The Department shall create a gang intelligence unit

development and implementation of policies aimed at deterring
gang activity. The Director shall appoint a Corrections

All information collected and maintained by the unit shall
be highly confidential, and access to that information shall
be restricted by the Department. The information shall be used
to control and limit the activities of gangs within

other law enforcement agencies in order to curb gang
activities outside of correctional institutions under the
jurisdiction of the Department and to assist in the
investigations and prosecutions of gang activity. The
Department shall establish and promulgate rules governing the
