Andre Cooper spent ten years on probation. He worked hard to rebuild his life – enrolling in classes and learning job skills. But the requirements of probation held him back. No matter how much progress he made, he always felt like he was seen as “the same old criminal.”

No parent should have to choose between paperwork and their child’s safety. Too often, probation and parole serve as barriers – keeping parents from being there for their kids, workers from growing their careers, and families from reaching stability. We hear stories like Nelson’s
