| | 3461: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | The overall goal of the Redeploy Illinois Public Act is to reduce the number of juveniles committed to the Illinois Department of Corrections (IDOC) by providing incentives to counties to create local resources that will more effectively meet the needs of delinquent youth while at the same time keeping the community safe. The program is being implemented using a variety of approaches across four pilot sites, in the 2nd Judicial Circuit as well asMacon County, St. Clair and Peoria counties in Illinois. This report is focused exclusively on the evaluation of the 2nd Judicial Circuit pilot program, which consists of 12 counties. The evaluation approach was designed to address the unique characteristics of this pilot site through establishing key performance indicators and research questions for assessing the impact and implementation of the Redeploy Illinois program. Five performance indicators were identified for assessing the impact of the Redeploy Illinois program and six performance indicators were identified for assessing the implementation of the program. | | | | Date Created: | 02 2005 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003676 Original UID: 3517 FIRST WORD: Redeploy | |

| 3463: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Racial disproportionality in prison admissions for drug crimes in Illinois prompted the Authority to commission a more in-depth analysis of the problem. The products of the analysis were slated to appear in four complementary reports examining the disproportionate confinement of minority drug offenders. The first discussed racial disparities in criminal justice processing for drug crimes at the national level and provided the background for the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority-commissioned analysis (Lurigio, 2004). The current report, which is the second in the series, is designed to promote a basic understanding of the structure and content of Illinois' drug laws. It discusses the major components of those laws as originally drafted as well as additions and enhancements to those laws that were enacted from 1985 to 2002. | | | | Date Created: | 11 17 2006 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003678 Original UID: 3519 FIRST WORD: Disproportionate | |

The Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority awarded a small grant to TASC for a preliminary investigation of racial disproportionality in sentencing for drug crimes. The current report is the third in a series of publications that highlight the disproportionate incarceration of African Americans for drug crimes in Illinois. The purpose of the current report is to describe the results of analyses of statewide data in order to test whether Human Rights Watchs findings on disproportionality were replicable and to consider a few hypotheses thatsuggest explanations for the arrest and imprisonment data and provide a basis for future discussions of remedies for racial sentencing disparities. | | | | Date Created: | 11 2005 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003679 Original UID: 3520 FIRST WORD: Disproportionate | |

This review compared six subjects' criminal history information as compiled by two private providers with the subjects' official rap sheets and discovered that the quality of those records varied depending upon their source. In addition to recommending further research in this area, several recommendations are presented to increase the accuracy of privately compiled criminal history records and warn users of the disparity between the official and unofficial compilations. | | | | Date Created: | 06 01 2005 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003680 Original UID: 3521 FIRST WORD: Comparison | |

| 3470: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | The effectiveness of intervention programs for men who batter is an important issue for practice, policy and research. This report summarizes a preliminary examination of outcomes of Cook County batterer intervention programs (BIP). In Cook County, 30 community programs and one court-housed program provide a state standard minimum of 24 weeks of intervention programming for men arrested for domestic violence. The specific questions this evaluation addresses are: (1) What is the completion rate of men referred to batterer programs in Cook County? (2) What is the rate of re-arrest of men completing the batterer program compared with men not completing the program? (3) Do participants change their behavior during the program? (4) Are there identifiable factors associated with program completion, re-arrest, and behavioral change? | | | | Date Created: | 02 14 2005 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003685 Original UID: 3528 FIRST WORD: Program | |

This project, the Illinois Crime Victimization Survey (IL-CVS), is Illinois' first attempt at gauging the extent and nature of crime victimization among our state's citizens. Specifically, the goals of the IL-CVS were to: (1) estimate the rate of personal and property crime victimization in Illinois and regionally; (2) provide details about the nature of crime victimization in Illinois; and (3) assess public knowledge and utilization of crime victim services in Illinois. | | | | Date Created: | 03 01 2005 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003686 Original UID: 3529 FIRST WORD: The | |
| 3472: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2005 Feb. | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | This is the third evaluation report on the status of the information technology enterprise system under development by the Chicago Police Department (CPD). Since 2001, the CPD, in partnership with Oracle Corporation and the Police Executive Research Forum, has been developing a state-of-the-art integrated criminal justice information system. This system "Citizen and Law Enforcement Analysis and Reporting (CLEAR)" is another step in the Department's ongoing quest to "police smarter" and be "intelligence driven." CLEAR is designed to provide anytime, anyplace access to vast repositories of centralized, relational data. In early 2004, the governor of Illinois and mayor of Chicago announced their commitment to building a single criminal justice database for the state and all of its criminal justice agencies. The new system "I-CLEAR" will eventually serve all of Illinois through a new partnership between Chicago and the Illinois State Police. Chicago's Office of Emergency Management and Communications and the federal Department of Homeland Security are also now involved in these developments as well. This report describes all of these initiatives, the "launch procedures" that lie behind them and their impact on policing through October 2004. | | | | Date Created: | 02 17 2005 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003687 Original UID: 3530 FIRST WORD: CLEAR | |

| 3480: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Despite the fact that most juveniles adjudicated delinquent are sentenced to probation in Illinois, relatively little is known about the characteristics of these offenders, the conditions imposed as part of their probation term, and the outcomes of these sentences. To fill the gap in information about Illinois' juvenile probation population, and the effectiveness of probation, the Illinois Supreme Court's Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts has collaborated with local probation departments, and the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority over the past 10 years to collect detailed probation-level data to support program and policy development in the state. The 2000 Illinois Probation Outcome Study is the latest, and most comprehensive effort to assess the needs and impact of probation in Illinois. | | | | Date Created: | 09 2002 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003695 Original UID: 3539 FIRST WORD: Results | |
