The upcoming election is more important than ever. With confusion for so many ex-offenders across the U.S regarding right to vote and the staggering number of over half million ex-offenders returning home every year, we cannot afford a single lost vote due to misunderstanding. Arrested Development is staging the nation's largest 1st voter drive for ex-offenders.  Many states such as Illinois allows voting for all ex-offenders once released from prison even if on parole or probation.  Check your eligibility and make sure your voice is counted.

Training and offering assistance to social agencies as well as informing the public about expungement options, Arrested Development Foundation furthers its exempt purposes by potentially increasing the number of employed taxpaying citizens, decreasing the recidivism rate by assisting ex-offenders with gainful employment opportunities, and promoting community involvement with "give back" initiatives through faith-based groups for ex-offenders

Arrested Development Foundation will work with all agencies and faith-based initiatives that are focused on improving the employment aspects for individuals with criminal records.  The Organization will not limit the amount of training or technical assistance an agency can receive.  The only limitation will be to the extent that funding is available.  In the absence of funding, it will be impossible to keep services and program assistance in motion.   The prerequisite to utilizing services will be that the agency must have direct contact with individuals that have a criminal record who are living in low to moderate income neighborhoods.  Agencies will not be “selected”, but rather, they will qualify for training and assistance based on their relationship with individuals struggling to find gainful employment because of a criminal conviction.
