On Wednesday, February 16th, Goodwill Industries of Central Florida’s virtual job connection team will partner with Seminole County Bar Association Legal Aid Society, Inc. to host a free webinar on sealing and expungement. This virtual session will walk participants through the process of sealing or expunging a criminal record on their own, including eligibility requirements.
Research has shown that relief from the stigma associated with a criminal record leads to improved outcomes when seeking employment.
Interested participants must register in advance by visiting here. The event will begin at 2pm.
While the unemployment rate in Central Florida sits below 5%, there are still many people searching for their next career opportunity, making Goodwill’s job connection services more important than ever to the community. Employment specialists have been working virtually with job seekers to update résumés, practice interviewing and apply for openings online. Upcoming free webinars can be found on Goodwill’s website.
Anyone in need of assistance can email [email protected] or call (407) 235-1541.
