Criminal Record Clearing Clinic & Cultural Fiesta
Attorneys help people look at their public records and if a person has anything that needs to be addressed, then that person is connected with Public Defenders, on site, to start the criminal record clearing process.
Criminal record clearing is important to the individual and to the community. We will celebrate that ‘fresh start’ collectively. That is why we are calling our legal clinic La Fiesta de la Oportunidad.
