[from p2a.co:] For formerly incarcerated individuals, reentering society is filled with uncertainties. Those include gaining access to life’s basic needs like housing and a career, proven ways to ensure they don’t return to prison. But too often, they are unable to take advantage of what is offered to others without a criminal record and end up back behind bars, adding more costs to taxpayers.The Second Chance Reauthorization Act aims to give those who have served their time a leg up. It would extend vital reentry grant programs in addition to expanding services for things like substance use disorder treatment. These vital lifelines help ensure prisoners can successfully reenter society. Urge Congress to support this bill today!

I need to read the bill, but if anyone already has, can you comment on whether there are carve outs for persons convicted of sex offenses?
