The work that followed

Jackson has since made his own experience with the federal justice system part of his public work on reentry and second chances.

The Office of Sean P. Jackson and the SPJ Criminal Justice Reform Initiative publish material focused on reentry, record sealing and expungement, voting-rights restoration, incarceration data, and practical second-chance information.
