Community Notification: What You Should Know
In 1996, the Minnesota Legislature passed the Community Notification Law (Minnesota Statute 244.052). The purpose is to help residents stay informed and prepared when certain offenders are released into the community.
By law, some private information about these individuals becomes public—based on the risk level assigned to them before release. The higher the risk level, the more people are notified and the more details can be shared.
Your local police department is responsible for sharing this information.
How Risk Levels Are Assigned
Before an offender is released from prison, a state panel called the End of Confinement Review Committee (ECRC) evaluates them and assigns a risk level (1, 2 or 3). This risk level determines how much information can be shared and with whom.
Information may be shared with:
- Victims and witnesses
- Other law enforcement agencies
- Individuals identified by the prosecutor
No general community notification.
Information may be shared with:
- Everyone listed under Level One
- Certain organizations (like schools, daycares, or places where people may be at risk)
- Specific individuals law enforcement believes may be at risk
Organizations notified must not share the information with others.
Law enforcement may notify:
- Everyone included in Levels One and Two
- The general public
Information is shared through:
- Community meetings
- Flyers or mailings
- News media or social media
Public meetings include:
- Offender’s general location (not exact address)
- Description and photo
- Past behavior patterns
- Safety tips and information about the notification law
Note: This does not apply to offenders living in licensed facilities (like halfway houses) or secure hospitals managed by the state.
