The Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act legalized adult-use cannabis in Illinois on January 1, 2020. In addition to limiting enforcement and prosecution of cannabis-related offenses and providing a source of state revenue, the Act established the Restore, Reinvest, and Renew grant program (R3). Administered by the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority (ICJIA), R3 directs a significant portion of cannabis revenue toward building equity in communities that have been ravaged by violence and disproportionately impacted by historical criminal justice system overuse and economic disinvestment. This brief report highlights results of a feedback survey provided to R3 grant program applicants regarding their application experiences. Overall, survey respondents appeared satisfied with the process and offered recommendations to consider for improving future grant application cycles.
