ARI 2018 All-Sites Summit: Data Planning & Impact

Hosted by the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority, Adult Redeploy Illinois, Loyola University’s Center for Criminal Justice Research, Policy, and Practice, and the Illinois Center of Excellence for Behavioral Health and Justice, the Summit will bring together a broad range of stakeholders from counties and judicial circuits either operating or interested in developing CJCCs and ARI-funded local prison diversion programs. Serving as both the seventh annual ARI All-Sites Summit and the second convening of CJCCs from around the state, the event will provide rich opportunities for mutual learning and foster coordinated decision-making.

All three days will provide information and training that benefit members of CJCCs and ARI teams; however, if you cannot attend all three days, please attend the days that are geared toward your program affiliation. Day 1 (Tuesday, May 8 in the afternoon) will focus on CJCC technical assistance, Day 2 (Wednesday, May 9 all day) will be combined CJCC and ARI programming, and Day 3 (Thursday, May 10 in the morning) will focus on ARI technical assistance. There will be networking events on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.

Those expected to attend are a spectrum of ARI and CJCC site stakeholders including but not limited to judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, treatment providers, probation staff and supervisors, law enforcement, program coordinators, researchers, program partners, and policymakers. Summit content is structured for relevancy to a broad group of stakeholders. In addition to current ARI program representation, planning grantees are also invited and have previously benefited from talking with current sites and accessing system-wide training. The Illinois Center of Excellence for Behavioral Health and Justice will provide CEUs for LPC, LCPC, LSW, LCSW, LMFT, Psychologists, IAODAPCA, and CLEs for attorneys. CEUs will be provided for all three days.
