"Can't take away what you've done in the past, but we can prevent it from happening again." - Corine Barnes, House of Hope.

THE PROBLEM: 3+ million Illinoisans have records eligible for clearance, but only 10% have started the complicated, expensive process. The current system requires lawyers, fees, and court appearances—making it nearly impossible for most people.

THE SOLUTION: Clean Slate Illinois AUTOMATES the sealing of eligible arrest and conviction records—no lawyer, no fees, no court appearance.
WHAT YOU'RE SEEING: Community organizers in Peoria going door-to-door, educating neighbors one conversation at a time. This is what statewide organizing looks like—not just Chicago, but every corner of Illinois.
