Letter from Lieutenant Governor Juliana Stratton
During the R3 Programs inaugural year, we faced unprecedented challenges while navigating the
implementation of a groundbreaking program to address generational harm caused by the war on drugs.
Meanwhile, the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated inequities across Illinois and shied the R3 Program Board
(the Board) decision-making process to center the needs of disinvested communities. On January 21, 2021,
the Board awarded $31.5 million in grant funding to 80 organizations and their collaborative partners. Funded
programs oered evidence-based and innovative restorative practices within the R3 Programs priority areas of
civil legal aid, economic development, reentry, violence prevention, and youth development.
On June 22, 2022, the second round of R3 Program funding granted $45 million to 148 agencies focusing on
service delivery, community planning, and capacity building. Since embarking on our partnership, we have
introduced various summer violence prevention funding opportunities and created sustainability for service
providers to continue programming for up to three years. In total, we have invested approximately $244 million
to deliver transformational justice to communities across Illinois.
As Chair of the R3 Program Board, I would like to thank my fellow Board members, Delrice Adams, Executive
Director of the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority (ICJIA) and her team, and the Justice, Equity,
and Opportunity (JEO) Initiative within my oce for their steadfast leadership and focus in fortifying the
infrastructure required to ensure equitable access to state grant funding. I would also be remiss if I didnt
mention that this work would not have been achieved without the wisdom and collaboration of the communities
that have been impacted the most.
As we prepare for the third round of R3 Program funding, we continue to prioritize supporting small
organizations and community groups working directly with individuals. In January 2023, ICJIA launched a new
capacity-building hub entitled the Institute 2 Innovate (i2i). e R3 Program will require more enhancements
to ensure organizations of all sizes have the tools to access and submit a successful application. It is my esteemed
honor to lead the charge as we create a model for the nation. Together, we can create equitable practices to
address decades of disinvestment, over-incarceration, and trauma caused by the war on drugs.
Respectfully,
Juliana Stratton
Lieutenant Governor of Illinois
Chair of the Restore, Reinvest, and Renew Program Board

I. Legislative Background
e Illinois 100th General Assembly passed the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act (CRTA) during the 2019
legislative session. Governor JB Pritzker signed the CRTA into law on June 25, 2019, legalizing adult-use
cannabis in Illinois on January 1, 2020. e Act also established the Restore, Reinvest, and Renew (R3) Program
which allocates 25% of adult-use cannabis state tax revenues to address the harm caused to communities by
economic disinvestment, violence, and the war on drugs.
Per the statute, funds appropriated for R3 Program grants are required to address at least one of the following
priority areas: economic development, violence prevention, youth development, reentry, and civil legal aid. On
January 13, 2020, a working group of research experts from around the state identied eligible neighborhoods
for R3 Program funding based on rates of gun injuries, child poverty, unemployment, and incarceration in
those areas. In their nal analysis, these experts examined data provided by state agencies and the U.S. Census
Bureau. e eligible communities amounted to approximately 500 census tracts in Illinois. Of the eligible census
tracts, 48% were designated as “high need,” indicating that these census tracts fell in the top quartile of the above
indicators.

II. R3 Program Board
In collaboration with the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority (ICJIA), the Lieutenant Governor’s
Justice, Equity, and Opportunity (JEO) Initiative oversees the administration of the R3 Program Board and
funding aligned with the program. e R3 Program Board, chaired by the Lieutenant Governor, manages the
program. Board members include Illinois ex-ocios, elected ocials, community-based providers, violence
prevention experts, people who live or work in R3 eligible areas, and most importantly, people with lived
experience in the criminal legal system.
Under the CRTA, the R3 Program Boards responsibilities are to:
1. Develop a process to solicit applications from eligible R3 Areas;
2. Develop a standard template for both planning and implementation activities to be submitted by R3
Areas to the State;
3. Identify resources sucient to support the full administration and evaluation of the R3 program,
including building and sustaining core program capacity at the community and State levels;
4. Review R3 Area grant applications and proposed agreements and approve the distribution of resources;
5. Develop a performance measurement system that focuses on positive outcomes;
6. Develop a process to support ongoing monitoring and evaluation of R3 programs; and
7. Deliver an annual report to the General Assembly and the Governor to be posted on the Governor's
Oce and General Assembly websites, as well as provide the public with an annual report on the R3
programs progress.
First convened in October 2019, the R3 Program Board has been intentional about listening to the wisdom
held within communities across Illinois to guide improvements following each round of R3 Program funding.
e Board expanded educational and technical assistance opportunities to prioritize smaller organizations that
work directly with community members. Repairing the harm across Illinois begins with accessible and equitable
practices in grant funding so organizations can submit successful applications.

b. First Round Developments
R3 Program Board Approves Development of Equitable NOFOs
On March 3, 2020, the R3 Program Board voted to approve the development of equitable Notice of Funding
Opportunities (NOFOs) based on the recommendations of the Grantmaking Working Group. e two separate
R3 Program NOFOs included:
y Service Delivery: Funding organizations that provide direct services in one or more of the ve R3
Program priorities.
y Planning and Assessment: Funding organizations to develop strategy for service grants in one or more
of the ve R3 Program priorities.
R3 Program Board Approves First Round NOFOs
On May 18, 2020, e R3 Program Board voted to approve the public release of two NOFOs. ICJIA and
the Oce of the Lieutenant Governor executed a statewide outreach eort as early as January of 2020 for
organizations to be made aware of the R3 Program grant opportunity. Due to the COVID-19 pandemics onset
in March of 2020, the agencies pivoted to conduct the robust community engagement strategy virtually, ensuring
equitable access through the following avenues:
y R3.illinois.gov: ICJIA created a website to centralize all information relating to the R3 Program.
y Townhalls with Legislators: e Oce of the Lieutenant Governor conducted outreach to legislators to
notify them about the R3 Program grant opportunity and requested that they share the information with
their constituents. In partnership with ICJIA, Lieutenant Governor Stratton and the JEO Initiative hosted
and participated in several virtual townhalls with legislators to discuss the R3 Program and answer
questions from attendees.
y Technical Assistance: ICJIA hosted virtual technical assistance trainings developed for organizations
interested in applying for the R3 Program as well as other state funding opportunities. ere were over
500 attendees to these trainings.
y Community Meetings: In partnership with ICJIA, Lieutenant Governor Stratton and the JEO Initiative
hosted several virtual community meetings to promote the R3 Program to potential applicants and
answer questions from attendees. e community meetings were attended by hundreds of individuals
across the state.
R3 Program Board Awards $31.5 Million in Grant Funding
On January 21, 2021, the R3 Program Board voted to award $31.5 million in grant funding to 80 organizations
and their collaborative partners. On average, less than 100 applications are received for any grant opportunities
managed by ICJIA. e R3 Program received over 400 unique applications during its inaugural year. Holistic
community engagement, technical assistance, an extended deadline, and a need for community healing resulted
in a staggering number of R3 grant applications.

R3 Program Board Increases for Collaborative and Designates Summer Violence Prevention Pilot Program
Funding
On May 7, 2021, the R3 Program Board voted to increase grant funds for the collaboration between
Comprehensive Community Solutions, Inc. and Beautiful Beginnings. is collaborative originally received
a fraction of the funding that they requested. ICJIA worked through the budget and program design of the
organization and found that only one component of the collaborative would be viable with a reduced award,
which would defeat funding purposes. Additionally, the Board designated $3 million in funds for a summer
violence prevention pilot program.
R3 Program Board Increases Summer Violence Prevention Pilot Program Funding, Approves Pilot Program
Grantees, and Extends Funding for Qualied First Round Awardees
On June 24, 2021, the R3 Program Board voted to increase summer violence prevention pilot program funds
from $3 million to $11 million. e Board then voted to approve 21 organizations outside of the original R3
Program grant recipients for the pilot program funding. Moreover, the Board extended funding for qualied
rst round grantees to have continuous funding throughout the summer of 2021 and summer of 2022.
c. Second Round Developments
R3 Program Board Establishes NOFO Working Group and Grants ICJIA Permission to Release Another NOFO
On September 15, 2021, the R3 Program Board voted to establish the R3 Program NOFO Working Group. e
Board voted to approve the NOFO fact sheet granting ICJIA authority to release a 2nd NOFO.
While the rst round of funding incorporated equity, the second round of grant funding would add additional
equity considerations, such as:
y Incorporating in the merit-based review and clearly identifying in the NOFO a new equity score card
giving an additional 10 points to organizations that demonstrate equity in their stang or service
provisions.
y A new tiered application process aimed at increasing access to smaller, hyperlocal organizations (Tier
1 organizations had operated for less than two years, Tier 2 organizations had been in operation for
less than two years with an annual budget of less than $2 million, and Tier 3 organizations had been
functioning for more than ve years with a budget of more than $2 million); and
y Enhanced technical assistance eorts and a statewide outreach plan to assure information and access was
granted to organizations statewide.
R3 Program Board Approves Development of Equitable NOFOs
On October 25, 2021, the R3 Board approved two separate R3 program NOFOs for the second round of R3
grants:
y Service delivery NOFO to fund organizations who provide direct services in one or more of the ve R3
program priorities.
y Planning and capacity-building NOFO to fund community planning processes in R3 areas and/or assist
smaller or newer organizations in building their organizational capacity.

impact on the communities they serve.
At the core of the i2i Program is a commitment to addressing the historical disinvestment that has plagued
grassroots organizations in the state. ese organizations, oen the lifeblood of their communities, have faced
capacity challenges that render them vulnerable and at risk of dissolution. i2i is actively working to support the
eorts of these types of hyperlocal, new and emerging organizations, helping them bolster their capabilities for
long-term organizational sustainability. is collaborative initiative directly addresses challenges identied by
these organizations, such as the need for sta training, lack of experience in grant management, limited nancial
expertise, and time constraints, particularly in the grant application process. R3 organizations experiencing
challenges may obtain a referral to an i2i grants coach who will provide another level of engagement and
support. i2i coaches spend additional hours providing a hands-on approach that addresses the needs of each
referred organization.
