The Legal Services Center of Harvard Law School (LSC) is running a series of workshops building off of our monthly CORI sealing events. In addition to sealing clients’ records, this revised series seeks to assist clients with elements of the re-entry process such as:
- finding housing,
- securing CORI-friendly employment,
- pursuing education and job training, and
- developing financial literacy, among other subjects.
The setup of the events will mirror that of a job or career fair, with representatives operating tables in the library space and speaking to potential clients about their organizations. Additionally, the events will have brief presentations on the CORI sealing process open to clients and attending organizations.
We held our pilot workshop on April 5, and we are now planning our second session. The workshop will take place on Wednesday, July 12, from 10 a.m. - 12 p.m. at the Roxbury/Nubian Square Branch of the Boston Public Library (149 Dudley St, Roxbury, MA 02119).
We would absolutely love to see turnout from across Boston, as a number of organizations planning to attend the Roxbury/Nubian Square event serve individuals across Greater Boston.
