Re-Entry

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

To contact our Re-Entry Project, call 607-273-3667.

Please note that our Rochester/Monroe Re-Entry Intake Unit will be closed until June 2025.
Please visit the linked folder here for information on pro se materials.
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

(3) Obtaining Employment with a Criminal Record and Employment Discrimination cases.

Please reach out to the Judicial Process Commission (JPC) if you are interested in applying for a Certificate or getting your DCJS record for sealing applications. Please reach out to the Division of Human Rights to file pro se complaints for potential Employment Discrimination cases.
