UXD issue is #1366 where I left comment : Onwubu worked on this issue for a bit and reformatted the layout. @jyehllow and I will review it to ensure it is consistent with the rest of the website's design. We will then hand it over to Dev.

Content shared that they made quick fixes to the copy for now and then will return to it at a later time

Quick fixes were not added, so I went back through to check where they were and have added them to the design updates. Cheryl wrote this copy as the solution previously, and have now added it into the new redesign:

Why expungement matters -1 in 3 people in America have a criminal record. -Black people are disproportionally convicted of low-level, nonviolent crimes. -In California, 227,650 marijuana convictions were eligible for record clearance (expungement). 94% of those convictions were cleared between 2019 and 2023. Source: Department of Justice.

Will loop in UXR to check any accuracies Changed record clearance to expungement in header

@raeraeicky @sylvia-nam

Above is the finalized text for the about page section "Why expungement matters." Wanted to loop in UXR for a check. Is there anything legally inaccurate? Is there anything that can can be construed as legal advice?

Thank you!

SamHyler commented 3 weeks ago

The Partner with us section also had changes, namely these to the body text (have been added to the design frames):

We are seeking partnerships with clinics and organizations focused on criminal-justice reform. Partnership means, in part, that Expunge Assist would tailor this product to the needs of your organization and clients, free of charge.


Contact us to learn more.

@SamHyler I made comments and have a proposed revision is in this doc. I ran the document by @raeraeicky @saraisabelcf during our research meeting today, and they okayed it.
