Welcome to the Expunge Assist Wiki!

Project Definition

Expunge Assist aims to help people in California with arrest and conviction histories clean their criminal record.

Introduction to the Project

What is Expunge Assist?

Expunge Assist (formerly known as The Record Clearance Project) initially was created to address new developments based on Prop 47 and Prop 64, which paved the way for cleared records for cannabis and other non-violent and non-serious convictions in CA. We use technology to create tools that address government and non-profit partner needs in a changing legal landscape.

Why do it?

Clearing your record can help remove barriers to getting a job, housing, and educational opportunities. Most misdemeanors and felonies are now eligible for expungement. We aim to make that process easier for them.
