90% of Delawareans surveyed agree that a person’s economic means should not limit their opportunity for a second chance. Delaware's Clean Slate laws, set to begin in August, provide a streamlined, automated process that applies to records eligible for mandatory expungement.

VICTORY — Yesterday, we joined housing partners to watch @JohnCarneyDE sign SS 1 for SB 1, renters' right to representation in eviction proceedings, into law. 👏 Delaware is the fourth state in the country to guarantee this right to renters in both public and private housing.
