The Purpose of this Toolkit
Southern Coalition for Social Justice continues to honor Umar Muhammad and his important work by providing resources and information to individuals burdened with a criminal record. The purpose of the Umar Muhammad Clean Slate toolkit is to help individuals determine their expunction relief eligibility and the steps to remove charges and convictions from their records, making it possible for them to economically and socially better their lives. This toolkit provides resources for those seeking expunction relief and can assist attorneys in representing individuals with criminal records.
We dedicate this toolkit to Umar, who opened every Clean Slate Clinic by stating: “You are not the sum of your worst mistakes.”
