(730 ILCS 5/3-14-6)
Sec. 3-14-6. Transitional jobs; pilot program. Subject to appropriations
or other funding, the Department may
establish
a
pilot program at various locations in the State to place persons discharged from a
Department
facility on parole or mandatory supervised release in jobs or otherwise
establish a
connection between such persons and the workforce. One such location must be at Waukegan, in Lake County. By rule, the Department
shall
determine the locations in which the pilot program is to be implemented
and the services to be provided.
In determining locations for the pilot program, however, the Department shall
give priority to areas of the State in which the concentration of released
offenders is the highest.
The
Department may consult with the Department of Human Services in establishing
the pilot
program.
