Open to all adults with limited criminal history and accepts misdemeanors and low level felonies. The young adult will have to perform either community service, training & education, job shadowing, internships or employment, counseling and evaluations, or participating in culturally appropriate programming. Participants who are accepted into the program have 3-4 months to complete their requirements. Once they complete their requirements the State will dismiss their charges. If the participant then stays out of trouble for a period of one year, the State will not oppose a motion to expunge or clear their record, including the arrest. This allows the young adult to not suffer from the negative consequences of a criminal conviction that could greatly affect their future, such as regarding student loans, employment and housing.
