The Illinois Department of Corrections will have to report more information about contraband in its facilities as the department continues to face scrutiny around substance exposures.
Senate Bill 2201 takes effect on July 1st, requiring the department to annually report data about what contraband is found, where it was discovered, how it got into the facility, and any disciplinary action that was taken as a result.
It also requires IDOC to report on medical responses and hospitalizations for staff members, including the cause.
