Promote community safety and economic growth by:

- Preventing adverse housing action on the basis of arrests that did not result in conviction, or criminal justice records that have been sealed or expunged.

- Allowing prospective tenants denied housing due to a criminal history or credit record to obtain a copy of the record.

- Correcting a statutory omission regarding landlords' inquiry into sealed records.

- Enacting protections for landlords in civil cases.

Determine the cost and feasibility to develop a standardized comprehensive profile for each convicted felon, to include a Pre-Sentence Information Report (PSIR) that is entered into an automated system and made accessible to authorized personnel.

Representatives from probation, community corrections, DOC, and local jails must work together to develop and implement a protocol whereby a standardized, comprehensive profile of an offender, the offense, and the victim impact--which may include the PSIR--and individual empirically-based assessment information (such as the Level of Supervision Inventory, and specialized assessments), should follow all individuals convicted of a felony throughout the system, from pre-sentence to release. This assessment should be regularly updated, at a minimum prior to significant decision points in custody or during community supervision, to assure that program placement is linked to criminogenic needs and to document treatment progress and new skills obtained. A systematic quality assurance procedure must be implemented with this initiative. Protocols to share this information while protecting the privacy of the individual must be developed and implemented within and across agencies.

Increase "gate money" for first-time parolees upon release.
