Having a criminal record is a lot more common than people think. 1 in 3 Americans, including over 800,00 Utahns, have some type of misdemeanor or felony level criminal record. Even old and minor records can prevent people from getting safe housing, good jobs, and other opportunities.
Join us on June 18th for a dynamic event to learn about a new partnership to help people with records move forward in life. Rasa will demo their eligibility tool and moderate a panel discussion on why supporting students through record clearance is good for students, employers, public safety, our economy, and the future of Davis County.
Davis Tech and Rasa are excited to announce a new partnership that can help justice-impacted students and their families determine their options. As part of this partnership, all current and former Davis Tech students will receive free access to Rasa’s eligibility tool, which can tell them what is on their record and whether it is eligible for expungement under Utah law.
