Exploring Ex-Convict Injustices

We Spread Awareness Here!

What is the Goal of This Website?

Hello, I am Michael Tommaso, a student at Regis High School, commmited to doing justice in my community. This website that I have designed is designated to spreading awareness to the difficulty and hypocrisy that an ex-convict experiences, while entering back into society. I hope that with this website, I will be able to highlight the most critical aspects of life that are hindered by stigmas surrounding ex-convcits. These walls hurt our entire community, and by spreading awareness, we can make ex-convicts no longer defined by their past mistakes, but rather productive members of society looking towards the future.
