house 04/01/2025 - 119th Congress
We are advocating for the designation of April 2025 as "Second Chance Month" to raise awareness about the barriers faced by individuals with criminal records and to celebrate efforts helping them reintegrate into society as productive members. Recognizing this month is about acknowledging their human dignity, supporting reentry opportunities, and encouraging communities to offer second chances.
