1 | AN ACT concerning criminal law.
| ||||||
2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, | ||||||
3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||||
4 | Section 5. The Illinois Crime Reduction Act of 2009 is | ||||||
5 | amended by changing Section 20 as follows:
| ||||||
6 | (730 ILCS 190/20) | ||||||
7 | Sec. 20. Adult Redeploy Illinois. | ||||||
8 | (a) Purpose. When justice-impacted individuals offenders | ||||||
9 | are accurately assessed for risk, assets, and needs, it is | ||||||
10 | possible to identify which people should be sent to prison and | ||||||
11 | which people can be effectively supervised in the locality. By | ||||||
12 | providing financial incentives to counties or judicial | ||||||
13 | circuits to create effective local-level evidence-based | ||||||
14 | services, it is possible to reduce crime and recidivism at a | ||||||
15 | lower cost to taxpayers. Based on this model, this Act hereby | ||||||
16 | creates the Adult Redeploy Illinois program for | ||||||
17 | probation-eligible justice-impacted individuals offenders in | ||||||
18 | order to increase public safety and encourage the successful | ||||||
19 | local supervision of eligible justice-impacted individuals | ||||||
20 | offenders and their reintegration into the locality. | ||||||
21 | (a-5) For the purpose of this Section, "justice-impacted | ||||||
22 | individual" has the same meaning as "offender" in Section 5 of | ||||||
23 | this Act. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (b) The Adult Redeploy Illinois program shall allocate | ||||||
2 | reallocate State funds to local jurisdictions that | ||||||
3 | successfully establish a process to assess justice-impacted | ||||||
4 | individuals offenders and provide a continuum of locally based | ||||||
5 | sanctions and treatment alternatives for justice-impacted | ||||||
6 | individuals offenders who would be incarcerated in a State | ||||||
7 | facility if those local services and sanctions did not exist. | ||||||
8 | Funds shall be distributed via a grant program The allotment | ||||||
9 | of funds shall be based on a formula that rewards local | ||||||
10 | jurisdictions for the establishment or expansion of local | ||||||
11 | supervision programs and requires them to pay the amount | ||||||
12 | determined in subsection (e) if incarceration targets as | ||||||
13 | defined in subsection (e) are not met. | ||||||
14 | (c) Each county or circuit participating in the Adult | ||||||
15 | Redeploy Illinois program shall create a local plan describing | ||||||
16 | how it will protect public safety and reduce the county or | ||||||
17 | circuit's utilization of incarceration in State facilities or | ||||||
18 | local county jails by the creation or expansion of | ||||||
19 | individualized services or programs. | ||||||
20 | (d) Based on the local plan, a county or circuit shall | ||||||
21 | enter into an agreement with the Adult Redeploy Oversight | ||||||
22 | Board described in subsection (e) to reduce the number of | ||||||
23 | commitments of probation-eligible justice-impacted | ||||||
24 | individuals offenders to State correctional facilities from | ||||||
25 | that county or circuit. The agreement shall include a pledge | ||||||
26 | from the county or circuit to reduce their commitments by 25% |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | of the level of commitments from the average number of | ||||||
2 | commitments for the past 3 years of eligible justice-impacted | ||||||
3 | individuals offenders . In return, the county or circuit shall | ||||||
4 | receive , based upon a formula described in subsection (e), | ||||||
5 | funds to redeploy for local programming for justice-impacted | ||||||
6 | individuals offenders who would otherwise be incarcerated such | ||||||
7 | as management and supervision, electronic monitoring, and drug | ||||||
8 | testing. The county or circuit shall also be penalized, as | ||||||
9 | described in subsection (e), for failure to reach the goal of | ||||||
10 | reduced commitments stipulated in the agreement. | ||||||
11 | (d-5) Subject to appropriation to the Illinois Criminal | ||||||
12 | Justice Information Authority, the Adult Redeploy Illinois | ||||||
13 | Oversight Board described in subsection (e) may provide grant | ||||||
14 | funds to qualified organizations that can assist local | ||||||
15 | jurisdictions in training, development, and technical | ||||||
