Take Action. Restore Your Life.
1 in 5 people in North Carolina have a criminal record. Even charges that are dismissed or not guilty can lead to discrimination and lost wages.
NC Fair Chance will soon allow North Carolinians to search to see if they have dismissed or not guilty charges eligible to be expunged, or cleared, from their records. It will also be able to provide guidance about the expungement process.
The North Carolina Pro Bono Resource Center, a program of the Equal Access to Justice Commission, partners with the NC Justice Center, the Durham Expunction and Restoration Project (DEAR), and District Attorneys across the state to eliminate unpaid fines and fees for low-level traffic offenses causing long-term license suspensions. Thank you to the Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation and the American Bar Endowment for their support of Driver’s License Restoration efforts.
