Annual Report to the Governor and General Assembly on the Implementation and Projected Impact of Adult Redeploy Illinois
The Illinois Crime Reduction Act of 2009 (Public Act 96-0761) established the Adult Redeploy Illinois program to increase public safety and target resources wisely to design effective alternatives to incarceration for non-violent offenders. Adult Redeploy Illinois provides financial incentives to local jurisdictions that design and implement community service plans for non-violent offenders instead of sending them to prison. When properly implemented, community-based programs are more cost-effective than incarceration at treating certain types of offenders without negatively impacting public safety.
