CURE IL’s goal is to contribute to a paradigm shift from viewing those involved with the criminal justice system as less than human and mentally deranged, to human beings deserving of humane treatment and rehabilitation, so they may contribute to society rather than cost taxpayers.Laws should protect society, not penalize poverty, mental illness, race or religion. We believe that prisons should be used only for the protection of society and that those incarcerated, should have all of the resources they need to turn their lives around. Our Justice System must be held accountable by transparency that will monitor humane policy implementation that will adhere to Section 11 of the Illinois Constitution, “with the objective of restoring the offender to useful citizenship.”(A) prisoner does not enter the prison gate destitute of all constitutional rights.— Jackson v. Hollowell, 714 F. 2d 1372, 1383 (5th Circuit, 1983)
