Record-Clearing Access Program

Launch a Record-Clearing Access Program your community can actually use.

LegalEase helps trusted organizations turn record-clearing outreach into guided intake, possible eligibility routing, document support, partner dashboards, and impact reports, through a 90-day RCAP launch.

RCAP provides general legal information, workflow, and reporting. It does not replace legal advice or promise legal outcomes.

01What is RCAP

The implementation layer between a record-clearing law and a person who clears their record.

Laws and clinics create the opportunity. People still fall out of the process: disconnected intake, manual follow-up, missing documents, unclear next steps, no reporting. RCAP is a 90-day partner campaign that closes that gap with one connected workflow.

Where people fall out today
  • Intake lives in a form that goes nowhere
  • Follow-up is manual and slips
  • Documents are missing or wrong
  • Next steps are unclear to the person
  • Partners can't see what happened after outreach
What RCAP puts in place
  • Guided intake on a branded campaign page
  • Automated routing to the right next step
  • Document support and automation
  • Plain-language path the person can follow
  • Partner dashboard and funder-ready impact report

Who RCAP is for

Built for the organizations already doing the work.

RCAP is for nonprofits, workforce and reentry programs, legal clinics, cities, counties, coalitions, funders, and national organizations that already serve people facing record-related barriers to jobs, housing, licensing, and education.

You bring the community. RCAP brings the workflow that turns outreach into measurable access.

04What your launch report shows

Show what happened after outreach. Not how many flyers you printed.

A sample of the partner dashboard. Every RCAP launch includes these program signals in a report you can hand to a funder.

06Partnership models

Pick the scope that fits where you are.

No published price, because scope drives cost: audience size, jurisdiction, reporting requirements, and support level. Here's what shapes each.

Tier 01

Starter Launch

Best for a clinic, event, or focused community campaign.

What affects costAudience size, jurisdiction, reporting depth, support level.
Tier 03

Strategic Partnership

Best for statewide, multi-site, national, or funder-backed initiatives.

Typical scopeMultiple campaigns, deeper reporting, expansion planning.
What RCAP is not

A guided access workflow. Not a promise of an outcome.

RCAP provides general legal information, workflow clarity, document automation, and reporting. It does not replace legal advice or court review, and does not promise eligibility, court acceptance, expungement, sealing, or any legal outcome. Reporting is privacy-conscious by design.

07Questions partners ask

Before you scope your launch.

What is a Record-Clearing Access Program?

A 90-day partner campaign that turns record-clearing outreach into guided intake, possible eligibility routing, document support, dashboard visibility, and a final impact report.

Who should launch RCAP?

Nonprofits, workforce and reentry programs, legal clinics, cities, counties, coalitions, funders, and national organizations that already serve people facing record-related barriers to jobs, housing, licensing, and education.

Does LegalEase determine legal eligibility?

No. RCAP surfaces possible next steps and routes people forward. It does not determine eligibility or replace a lawyer or court review.

Is this legal advice?

No. RCAP provides general legal information, workflow, document automation, and reporting. It is not legal advice.

What does the partner dashboard show?

Screenings started, intake completion, possible pathways identified, document support activity, drop-off points, and outreach source performance, in real time.

How does LegalEase protect participant privacy?

Reporting is privacy-conscious by design and focuses on program signals rather than exposing individual participant detail.

Can RCAP work with an existing legal aid clinic or pro bono partner?

Yes. RCAP is the distribution and implementation layer that routes people to guided intake and the right next step, including your existing legal partners.

What happens after the first 90 days?

You get an impact report and an expansion recommendation scoping the next campaign based on what the launch showed.
