ICYMI: Last month, Rasa Founder & CEO Noella Sudbury hosted a TEDxSaltLakeCity talk and shared how technology and innovation can transform legal services and unlock second chances for millions of people across the country. 1 in 3 Americans have some type of criminal record, ultimately excluding people from opportunities and holding them back years after their involvement in the justice system. Rasa's platform helps users instantly determine their eligibility for record clearance and connects them with an affordable lawyer. This affordable process of clearing a criminal record is life-changing. Research shows that individuals with cleared records are 63% more likely to land job interviews, and their wages increase by over 20% within just one year of record clearance. Congratulations to Noella Sudbury on the great TEDx talk!

How can you tell if someone has a criminal record? Statistically, it is more common than you might think. 1 in 3 Americans have some type of criminal record. While it is difficult to tell who among us has records, unfortunately, that doesn’t mean it stays hidden. In a digital age, criminal records are just a background check away from excluding people from opportunities, holding people back years after their involvement in the justice system. But what if there was a way to change that? 🔴 That’s where Noella Sudbury, our CEO and founder, comes in. In her inspiring TEDxSaltLakeCity talk, she shares how technology and innovation can transform legal services and unlock second chances for millions of people across the country. #tedxslc #tedxsaltlakecity #accesstojustice #expungement
