Fighting for Texans' right to a clean slate
Who We Are
We are a coalition of community and advocacy organizations, business and faith leaders, directly impacted people and families dedicated to expanding access to criminal record sealing so that people with justice involvement can get housing, employment, education and more without facing a lifetime of discrimination.
Issues

Problem
The rules governing who has access to record sealing (aka nondisclosure) are complicated and exclusionary.

Problem

Following decades of overcriminalization, between 70 million and 100 million Americans—1 in 3—now have some type of criminal record.
