18	18	1 AN ACT creating the Department of Returning Resident
19	19	2 Affairs.
20	20	3 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
21	21	4 represented in the General Assembly:
22	22	5 Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the Second
23	23	6 Chance Public Health and Safety Act.
24	24	7 Section 5. Legislative declarations and findings. The
25	25	8 General Assembly finds and declares that:
26	26	9 (1) The health, welfare, and prosperity of all
27	27	10 Illinois citizens requires the State to change its
28	28	11 response to individuals impacted by the judicial system
29	29	12 from failed siloed programming to a comprehensive,
30	30	13 coordinated, and holistic approach that provides those
31	31	14 returning residents with a real second chance to succeed
32	32	15 in life.
33	33	16 (2) Approximately 42% of Illinois' working age
34	34	17 population has an arrest or conviction record. The fact
35	35	18 that many of these Illinoisans had no first chance at
36	36	19 success in life before their interaction with the judicial
37	37	20 system, let alone a real second chance after their
38	38	21 release, underscores the need to respond to these
39	39	22 individuals when their justice involvement begins without
40	40	23 waiting until it ends.

89	89	1 (3) This condition is exacerbated after these
90	90	2 individuals are released from incarceration because they
91	91	3 are often perceived as being forever irredeemable even
92	92	4 though they have paid their debt to society. Their
93	93	5 post-incarceration environment is therefore fraught with
94	94	6 barriers to their success, with obstacles impeding them
95	95	7 from accessing such basic human necessities as decent
96	96	8 housing, meaningful employment, transportation,
97	97	9 education, digital literacy, health care, and nutrition.
98	98	10 (4) The cost of those obstacles to Illinois is high,
99	99	11 both in terms of dollars and violence. Approximately 41%
100	100	12 of persons incarcerated in Illinois will recidivate within
101	101	13 3 years. Each recidivism event costs Illinois taxpayers
102	102	14 over $151,000. The cost of recidivism in terms of violence
103	103	15 to Illinois communities is higher, with 39% of returning
104	104	16 residents being re-arrested for a violent crime within 9
105	105	17 years of release and 86% of persons charged with a
106	106	18 homicide in Illinois having arrest or conviction records.
107	107	19 An uncalculated cost to Illinois is the loss of
108	108	20 productivity and profitability to our State's businesses
109	109	21 that suffer from labor shortages when returning residents
110	110	22 could be supported and prepared to enter the workforce.
111	111	23 (5) Illinois' current approach to returning residents
112	112	24 fails because it requires them to navigate through the
113	113	25 requirements of numerous disjointed, siloed, and
114	114	26 uncoordinated programs that do not fit their individual

125	125	1 needs and without the fundamental knowledge, tools, and
126	126	2 assistance needed for those returning residents to
127	127	3 navigate them.
128	128	4 (6) It is in the best interests of all Illinois
129	129	5 citizens for the State to reduce the cost of recidivism by
130	130	6 moving from this failed approach. It is therefore in the
131	131	7 best interests of all Illinois citizens for the State to
132	132	8 create a comprehensive, coordinated, and holistic program
133	133	9 that provides returning residents with effective
134	134	10 assistance to respond to the social determinants and
135	135	11 obstacles that impede their successful reentry to society.
136	136	12 (7) This approach is best achieved by the State's
137	137	13 creation of a single Department to coordinate the
138	138	14 provision of programs to returning residents through
139	139	15 community-based navigators working for community-based
140	140	16 organizations. Those navigators and community-based
141	141	17 organizations understand returning residents' assessed and
142	142	18 individualized needs because they work in the communities
143	143	19 where returning residents live. With this experience, they
144	144	20 can support returning residents with the resources and
145	145	21 assistance they need to navigate through and connect with
146	146	22 the multiple systems and service providers that returning
147	147	23 residents require to be successful in life.
148	148	24 (8) The General Assembly therefore finds that it is
149	149	25 necessary to create the Department of Returning Resident
150	150	26 Affairs and to require the Department to take the actions

1157	1157	3 Sec. 7. Exemptions.
1158	1158	4 (1) When a request is made to inspect or copy a public
1159	1159	5 record that contains information that is exempt from
1160	1160	6 disclosure under this Section, but also contains information
1161	1161	7 that is not exempt from disclosure, the public body may elect
1162	1162	8 to redact the information that is exempt. The public body
1163	1163	9 shall make the remaining information available for inspection
1164	1164	10 and copying. Subject to this requirement, the following shall
1165	1165	11 be exempt from inspection and copying:
1166	1166	12 (a) Information specifically prohibited from
1167	1167	13 disclosure by federal or State law or rules and
1168	1168	14 regulations implementing federal or State law.
1169	1169	15 (b) Private information, unless disclosure is required
1170	1170	16 by another provision of this Act, a State or federal law,
1171	1171	17 or a court order.
1172	1172	18 (b-5) Files, documents, and other data or databases
1173	1173	19 maintained by one or more law enforcement agencies and

1176	1176	22 mental status of one or more individual subjects.
1177	1177	23 (c) Personal information contained within public
1178	1178	24 records, the disclosure of which would constitute a
1179	1179	25 clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, unless

1190	1190	1 the disclosure is consented to in writing by the
1191	1191	2 individual subjects of the information. "Unwarranted
1192	1192	3 invasion of personal privacy" means the disclosure of
1193	1193	4 information that is highly personal or objectionable to a
1194	1194	5 reasonable person and in which the subject's right to
1195	1195	6 privacy outweighs any legitimate public interest in
1196	1196	7 obtaining the information. The disclosure of information
1197	1197	8 that bears on the public duties of public employees and
1198	1198	9 officials shall not be considered an invasion of personal
1199	1199	10 privacy.
1200	1200	11 (d) Records in the possession of any public body
1201	1201	12 created in the course of administrative enforcement
1202	1202	13 proceedings, and any law enforcement or correctional
1203	1203	14 agency for law enforcement purposes, but only to the
1204	1204	15 extent that disclosure would:
1205	1205	16 (i) interfere with pending or actually and
1206	1206	17 reasonably contemplated law enforcement proceedings
1207	1207	18 conducted by any law enforcement or correctional
1208	1208	19 agency that is the recipient of the request;

1214	1214	25 hearing;

1234	1234	9 would interfere with an active criminal investigation
1235	1235	10 conducted by the agency that is the recipient of the

1240	1240	15 agencies related to detection, observation, or
1241	1241	16 investigation of incidents of crime or misconduct, and
1242	1242	17 disclosure would result in demonstrable harm to the

1713	1713	20 record that contains information that is exempt from
1714	1714	21 disclosure under this Section, but also contains information
1715	1715	22 that is not exempt from disclosure, the public body may elect
1716	1716	23 to redact the information that is exempt. The public body
1717	1717	24 shall make the remaining information available for inspection
1718	1718	25 and copying. Subject to this requirement, the following shall

1730	1730	2 (a) Information specifically prohibited from
1731	1731	3 disclosure by federal or State law or rules and
1732	1732	4 regulations implementing federal or State law.
1733	1733	5 (b) Private information, unless disclosure is required
1734	1734	6 by another provision of this Act, a State or federal law,
1735	1735	7 or a court order.
1736	1736	8 (b-5) Files, documents, and other data or databases

1741	1741	13 (c) Personal information contained within public
1742	1742	14 records, the disclosure of which would constitute a

1745	1745	17 individual subjects of the information. "Unwarranted
1746	1746	18 invasion of personal privacy" means the disclosure of
1747	1747	19 information that is highly personal or objectionable to a
1748	1748	20 reasonable person and in which the subject's right to
1749	1749	21 privacy outweighs any legitimate public interest in
1750	1750	22 obtaining the information. The disclosure of information
1751	1751	23 that bears on the public duties of public employees and
1752	1752	24 officials shall not be considered an invasion of personal
1753	1753	25 privacy.
