New Orleans Nonprofit Hosts Free Expungement Clinic to Support Criminal Record Recovery

If you’re in New Orleans and have faced challenges due to a criminal record, we’ve got some great news for you! A local nonprofit called Operation Restoration is offering a fantastic opportunity to help you *get back on track* in life. This Friday, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., they’re hosting a *free expungement clinic* right at Captain C’s Snowballs, located at 3636 Washington Ave. What a perfect way to enjoy a delicious snowball while tackling some serious life obstacles!

A Meaningful Month

This event is being held in honor of Second Chance Month, a time dedicated to supporting those affected by the criminal legal system. It’s a great reminder that everyone deserves a second shot at life, and this clinic aims to assist individuals who are ready to move forward. With *approximately 70 to 100 million adults* in the U.S. holding an arrest or conviction record, it’s clear that many people are in need of support to reclaim their lives.

Why Attend?

Many individuals struggle finding jobs, housing, or educational opportunities just because of their past records. Background checks often highlight these issues, making it hard for formerly incarcerated individuals to get their foot in the door. The expungement clinic offers a chance to clear these records, effectively lifting barriers that stand between them and a successful future.

Operation Restoration focuses on helping women and girls who have been impacted by incarceration. Their mission is all about empowering these individuals to reclaim their lives, and organizers know that clearing one’s record is a significant step in restoring dignity.

What to Bring

Thinking of attending? Make sure to bring along some important documents! You’ll need proof of your criminal record or other case information, plus a valid photo ID. This will help the team assist you in navigating the process smoothly.
