John,
Finding a job, stable housing, or opportunities for education are some of
the best ways to ensure success after incarceration. So why are these
“re-building” blocks often out of reach for those Americans who have a
record?
For many, getting in the door feels like an impossibility. Job, school and
housing applications, among others, include prying questions about past
convictions, which often immediately exclude the applicant from
acceptance. These institutional background checks work to pigeonhole and
stigmatize people who have otherwise distanced themselves from their past
as they rebuild their lives. Yet, instead of giving them a chance at
redemption, the current system is more likely to keep them in a cycle of
poverty and incarceration by making it harder to gain access to vital
services and opportunities due to a past mistake. That is why we at
Dream.Org are working with a coalition of organizations and stakeholders
to pass clean slate legislation in Kentucky. [ [link removed] ]And we need your support.
