          Amends the Sex Offender Registration Act. Requires a  sex
      offender  in addition to registering with the law enforcement
      agency in the municipality or county in  which  the  offender
      resides,  to also register with the law enforcement agency of
      the municipality or county in which the offender is employed.
      Provides that if the sex offender is  employed  in  the  same
      county  in  which  he  or she resides, the sex offender needs
      only  to  register  once  but  must  provide  both  work  and
      residence  addresses.  Amends  the  Child  Sex  Offender  and
      Murderer  Community  Notification  Law.  Provides  that   law
      enforcement  agencies  must  inform child care facilities and
      schools  of  identifying  information  concerning  child  sex
      offenders employed in the municipalities and  counties  where
      these facilities are located.
