applicant or employee has ever been charged with a crime and, if so, the
disposition of those charges.  The authorization shall indicate the scope of
the inquiry and the agencies that may be contacted. Upon receiving an
authorization, the Director may request and receive information and
assistance from any federal, State, or local governmental agency as part of
the authorized investigation. The Department of State Police shall provide
information concerning any criminal charges, and their disposition, now or
hereafter filed, against an applicant or facility employee upon
request of the Department when the request
is made in the form and manner required by the Department of State Police.
Information concerning convictions of a license applicant investigated
under this Section, including the source of the information and any

by the Department or any licensee. Any employee of
the Department, Department of State Police,
or a facility receiving confidential information under this
Section who gives or causes to be given any confidential information
concerning any criminal convictions of a facility applicant or
 facility employee is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor

		License renewal.

must apply for renewal of its license
to the Department on forms prescribed by the Department.

agency or person designated by the Department as its agent, must
re-examine every secure residential youth care facility applying for renewal of

licensing continue to be met.
If the Department is
satisfied that the facility continues to maintain the minimum standards that
it
prescribes and publishes, it shall renew the license to operate the facility.
(c) If a secure residential youth care facility's license is revoked, or if
the
Department refuses to renew a facility's license, the facility may not
reapply for a license before the expiration of 12 months following the
Department's action; however, the denial of a reapplication
for a license under this subsection must be supported by evidence
that the prior revocation renders the applicant unqualified or incapable of
satisfying the standards and rules promulgated by the Department under
this Act or maintaining a facility which adheres to those standards and
rules.
