In 2019, the Pennsylvania Board of Pardons completely revamped their application process for both pardons and commutations. The process is entirely free, the application is only four pages long, and vastly underutilized by people in Philadelphia.
On October 7th, PRC collaborated with Tobey Oxholm from Philadelphia Lawyers for Social Equity to host a training on the PA Application for Pardons and Commutations. Tobey explained the new application process, provided resources and advice on how to support someone who is not incarcerated and is interested in applying, and shared more about the important role that pardons and commutations can play in letting people live the lives they deserve.
