Goodwill and Partners Host Expungement Clinic
WICHITA, KAN. — Goodwill Industries of Kansas (GWKS) and partners from Kansas Legal Services and Koch Industries will host a free expungement clinic on April 4, 2025 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. The clinic is designed for community members seeking to clear prior arrests or past felony or misdemeanor convictions from their records.
“This expungement clinic opens the doors to a transformative opportunity for those in our community. An expunged record removes barriers to obtaining employment, housing, and education, and we are thrilled to be supporting our community and playing a role in this process,” said Goodwill Vice President of Mission Operations Lauren Soliday.
Individuals must meet certain criteria to qualify for this clinic. Kansas Legal Services professionals will help those interested determine whether they meet the criteria.
Interested community members must call 316-267-3975 or email klsprobono@klsinc.org before March 25 to determine if they are eligible for an expungement. Once their eligibility has been determined, community members can make an appointment for the clinic. The eligibility determination process and the clinic are free for participants.
“As part of our mission to transform communities through the power of education, training, and employment, Goodwill is committed to helping individuals eliminate barriers to employment. We are excited to partner with other organizations to make this event happen,” said Goodwill Industries of Kansas President/CEO Laura Ritterbush.
The expungement clinic will be held at Goodwill Opportunity Center – Empower located in the Evergreen Recreation Complex, 2700 North Woodland, Wichita.
