Title
Assessing Eligibility for Post-Conviction Relief for Survivors of Human Trafficking: Tips for Service Providers
Organization
American Bar Association
Abstract
The American Bar Association (ABA) developed this tip sheet for service providers who work with survivors of human trafficking to assess their eligibility for post-conviction relief through expungement and vacatur laws. Unresolved criminal records can negatively affect survivors eligibility for services, programs, licenses, and jobs as well as their sense of empowerment and well-being. Therefore, the ABA suggests discussing with survivors the extent of their criminal legal involvement as part of their long-term support plans.
