    Our Re-Entry Project serves individuals reentering society from incarceration and those with criminal records, prioritizing individuals seeking to obtain or maintain employment.

    This folder contains the following:

    (1) Sealing someone's criminal record under New York State Criminal Procedures Law (CPL) 160.59, with a fillable sealing application;

    (2) Applying for Certificates of Rehabilitation, with a fillable Certificate of Good Conduct form and a fillable Certificate of Relief from Disabilities form; and
