Correctional system
Adult correctional system
Under current law, DOC and DHFS operate the Drug Abuse Correctional Center Program in Winnebago, which provides substance abuse treatment for prison inmates transferred there. If DOC determines that an inmate has successfully completed the program, the inmate is released early to parole or extended supervision. Inmates convicted of certain violent crimes or certain offenses against children are not eligible for early release under this program. Inmates who are sentenced under the "Truth in Sentencing" law are eligible only if the court authorizes their participation. This bill authorizes DOC to establish similar treatment and release programs at any state prison.
crimes
The bill directs the Sentencing Commission to review sentences imposed on individuals who are convicted of nonviolent offenses, other than those relating to operating a vehicle while under the influence of an intoxicant, or with a restricted controlled substance or a prohibited level of alcohol in his or her blood, and to develop recommendations for alternative dispositions for those individuals that may be used by courts at or before sentencing. The Sentencing Commission must submit its recommendations in a report to the legislature by December 31, 2005.

DOA:......Fath, BB0421 - TANF and CCDF allocations
For 2005-07 Budget -- Not Ready For Introduction
2005 BILL
AN ACT ...; relating to: the budget.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Health and human services
Public assistance
Under current law, DWD allocates specific amounts of moneys in each fiscal year, including federal Child Care Development Funds (CCDF) and federal moneys received under the federal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) block grant program, for various public assistance programs and for child care-related purposes, including transferring moneys to DHFS for its day care licensing operations. This bill increases and decreases those allocations and adds an allocation to pay for a share of the costs of a mail-order lending library and information center operated by DPI's division for libraries, technology, and community learning. The bill eliminates an allocation for grants for developing early childhood centers for providing outreach and training for parents and training for child care providers, and eliminates the program.
