Child & Family Connections #19

Early Intervention Child & Family Connections (CFC) is a statewide system that has been established to ensure that all referrals of children under the age of three receive a timely response by an initial service coordinator in a prompt, professional and family-centered manner.

  • Motor, intellectual, emotional or speech delays

  • Diagnosed disabilities such as Cerebral Palsy or Downs Syndrome

Juvenile Redeploy Illinois Program

For more details, visit RedeployIllinois.com.

Juvenile Redeploy Illinois seeks to decrease youth incarceration in the Department of Juvenile Justice through evidence-based community programs that maintain public safety and promote positive outcomes for youth. In the State of Illinois, there are eight total sites covering 41 counties.  

 

Macon County is a model program for Juvenile Redeploy Illinois because of the long-term involvement and collaboration of the service provider agencies.

 

Current agencies include the Macon County Mental Health Board, Macon County Court Services/Probation, and Old King’s Orchard Community Center.

 

Since 2005, participating counties achieved a 56% average reduction in commitments, with a total of 1,309 youth avoiding incarceration. Preliminary results of a cost-effectiveness study among four Redeploy sites point to a 14.2% reincarceration rate for Redeploy participants, compared to 57.4% among non-participants.

 

For every state dollar invested in Juvenile Redeploy Illinois in 2012, the state saw $9.06 in benefits.
