In the U.S., over 40,000 collateral consequences impose legal & regulatory restrictions that limit or prohibit people convicted of crimes from accessing employment, business and occupational licensing, housing, voting, education, and other rights, benefits, and opportunities.
In this webinar, the panelists will take a critical look at recent policies and practices that are being implemented across the country to break down barriers to success for people with criminal records. The session will highlight the steps NRWC has taken to mobilize the field to crowdsource solutions to equip practitioners with the information, resources, tools, and services they need to help program participants navigate collateral consequences.
