to the official State of Wisconsin Sex Offender Registry Web
site.
In 1997, the State of Wisconsin enacted the Sex Offender
Registration and Community Notification Law. This law was
created to monitor and track people convicted of sex crimes and
to provide access to this information for police, victims and
the general public.
This Web site is designed to enhance public safety by making the
information contained in the Sex Offender Registry easily
accessible to the public. It will also serve to enhance public
awareness about sexual violence in our communities and provide
valuable information about the ways in which individuals and
communities can protect themselves and those they love from acts
of sexual violence. The hope is that this Web site may also, in
some meaningful way, reduce future victimization and the
suffering that accompanies it.
The Department of Corrections continually seeks to improve the
site for these purposes. As part of Governor Doyle's Sex
Offender Apprehension and Felony Enforcement (SAFE) Initiative,
beginning on December 1, 2005, the site displays the current
reported residence address of registered sex offenders who are
in the community.
We encourage the public to notify the Wisconsin Sex Offender
Registry of information on the web site believed to be
inaccurate, as well as any information concerning the
whereabouts of non-compliant registrants, through the new SAFE
Tip line toll free at 877-234-0085 or through email at
docsafetips@doc.state.wi.us.
