Provides that placement outside the sentencing community or a community of connection may occur only upon a documented determination by the Department of Corrections that such placement is necessary due to one or more of the following: (1) verified public safety concerns; (2) victim safety considerations, including the location of a victim or the existence of protective orders; (3) the unavailability of compliant housing that satisfies statutory or mandatory supervised release conditions; or (4) the unavailability of required treatment, monitoring, or supervision resources. Provides that prior to release, the Department of Corrections shall develop an individualized reentry plan for each individual subject to the provision that identifies the sentencing community and any communities of connection and evaluates appropriate housing, treatment, and supervision options.
