Clearviction

CLEARVICTION HAS PERMANENTLY CLOSED. Here is what we were doing, when we were active: We are reducing barriers faced by formerly incarcerated individuals by streamlining the process of vacating eligible convictions in Washington state. We analyzed the process of conviction vacation in Washington state, and have identified opportunities to use technology to streamline the process. Our efforts at the National Day of Civic Hacking on September 21st focused on automating eligibility calculation for conviction vacation. We see future opportunity to streamline the completion of the required forms. We are investigating the feasibility of a Turbo Tax style interface to simplify this process, and then e-filing the forms in counties where it is permitted.
