State Leaders Talk #SecondChanceMonth: Fair Chance Licensing and Clean Slate

Rebecca talks to state leaders from Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and California behind transformative wins on “clean slate” and fair chance licensing reforms in the states. Subscribe to Off-Kilter on iTunes.

As leaders at all levels of government work to “build back better” — and to address the nation’s legacy of racial injustice and persistent racial inequality — removing barriers to employment for workers with records is more urgently needed than ever amid the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and downturn, to ensure not only a full but an equitable recovery that does not leave tens of millions of system-impacted individuals and families behind. As Off-Kilter closes out our #SecondChanceMonth series for the month of April, we’re bringing you a conversation Rebecca had earlier this week with a group of state leaders who’ve been advancing transformative “clean slate” and fair chance licensing reforms in recent years.
