| 2: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 1 2003 2 April | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | This evaluation summary highlights findings from the most recent examination of Chicagos Alternative Policing Strategy (CAPS) that pertain to accountability in management within the Chicago Police Department. CAPS has evolved to include new information technology and management initiatives that will focus the Departments resources on resolving chronic crime and disorder complaints. The move toward managing for accountability is one of the most important innovations in contemporary American policing. The concept was popularized by New York City, where police headquarters uses crime data to identify priority trends. Local commanders select the most effective tactics for addressing them and are responsible for rapidly deploying their officers. Management analysts at headquarters assess how well the precincts have done, and at frequent Crime Control Strategy Meetings commanders appear before department executives to defend their effectiveness. Since their inauguration in 1994 these meetings have become famous and have been emulated across the nation. | | | | Date Created: | 04 01 2003 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003802 Original UID: 3668 FIRST WORD: Program | |

| 12: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 5 2007 2 March | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | A Redeploy Illinois pilot program implemented in the Second Judicial Circuit of Illinois provides community-based services to non-violent juvenile felony offenders. This Program Evaluation Summary describes an evaluation of the Second Judicial Circuits Redeploy pilot program. The evaluation of the program was supported by a grant awarded to the Authority by the Illinois Department of Human Services. The Second Judicial Circuit Redeploy Program was instituted to apply individualized evidence-based practices to address the needs of middle and high-risk juvenile offenders. Probation officers and community service providers monitor and provide services to juveniles selected for the program, and a research team evaluated program implementation and impact between March and December 2005. Several methods were used in this evaluation, including online surveys, interviews, site visits, and focus groups with key personnel. | | | | Date Created: | 03 2007 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003812 Original UID: 3658 FIRST WORD: Program | |
| 13: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 5 2007 3 May | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Redeploy Illinois programs, which provide community-based services in lieu of incarceration for non-violent juvenile felony offenders, have been successfully initiated in Peoria and St. Clair counties. The Redeploy Illinois Public Act 093-0641, which took effect Dec. 31, 2003, offers counties funding for community-based services including education, recreation, community service, crisis and health intervention, and alternative forms of detention, for non-violent youth who would otherwise be committed to the Illinois Department of Corrections (IDOC). Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention research suggests that non-violent youth are less likely to be involved in subsequent delinquent behavior if they remain in their communities and receive appropriate services that address their underlying needs. Community-based options for juvenile offenders also are generally less costly than institutional care in correctional facilities. Redeploy Illinois programs are being implemented at four sites in Illinois: Macon County, the 2nd Judicial Circuit (serving Crawford, Edwards, Franklin, Gallatin, Hamilton, Hardin, Jefferson, Lawrence, Richland, Wabash, Wayne, and White counties), Peoria County, and St. Clair County. | | | | Date Created: | 05 2007 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003813 Original UID: 3657 FIRST WORD: Program | |
