About

Adult Redeploy Illinois (ARI) was established by the Crime Reduction Act (Public Act 96-0761) to provide financial incentives to local jurisdictions for programs that divert individuals from state prisons while holding them accountable and providing community-based services. Administered by the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority, ARI provides grants to counties, groups of counties, and judicial circuits to increase programming in their areas, in exchange for reducing the number of people they send to the Illinois Department of Corrections.

The ARI 2020-2022 Strategic Plan centers equity in our mission, vision, and values.
