At the Felony Job and Resource Fair, hosted by Project H.O.O.D. https://www.projecthood.org/, Attorney Mara Baltabols and Paralegal Meg Fanslow helped educate the attendees on the Illinois Background Check Law and provide related resources. They had a great time collaborating at the fair and learning about opportunities for those with conviction records.
For more information, Attorney Baltabols co-wrote an article about the new requirements under Illinois law to help individuals with conviction records understand their rights when applying for work https://www.fishlawfirm.com/news/2024/november/attorneys-moser-and-baltabols-published-regardin/
