BCCC Hosts Free Criminal Expungement Clinic Sat., April 26 in Bristol

 In an effort to help people overcome past mistakes that may block future success, Bucks County Community College is hosting a free Criminal Expungement Clinic from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, April 26, at the Epstein Campus at Lower Bucks. Paralegal students, under the supervision of attorneys from Legal Aid of Southeast Pennsylvania, will help people determine if they are eligible to have certain prior arrests or convictions expunged or sealed from their record. Greg Luce, Dean of the School of Business, Innovation, and Legal Studies, said it’s the second year the College has hosted the free Criminal Expungement Clinic. After last year’s success at the Newtown Campus, the event is being offered at the College’s Bristol location this year. “The Expungement Clinic is a powerful example of experiential learning,” noted Luce. “Our paralegal students are gaining invaluable practical experience while providing a potentially life-changing service to our community members. It's a win-win for both our students and the residents of Bucks County.” The clinic is for individuals who: have arrests without convictions; or have misdemeanor convictions, without new convictions, over 10 years old; or are over 70 years old, and their conviction is at least 10 years old; or passed away at least 3 years ago, and a posthumous expungement is sought. Some convictions cannot be expunged, but may be sealed so that they are not of public record. Individuals must have paid all due fines and completed any probation to qualify for expungement. The clinic may need to refer some individuals to other legal organizations due to the location of their criminal records, such as Philadelphia or outside of Pennsylvania. All information shared with attorneys and paralegals is confidential. Paralegals may not practice law or otherwise provide legal services directly to the public except as permitted by law. The Epstein Campus at Lower Bucks is located at 1304 Veterans Highway, Bristol, PA, 19007, where there is ample free parking. Advance registration is preferred and available online. The registration deadline is April 4. For more information, email legalstudies@bucks.edu or call 215-968-8227.

 Bucks County Community College invites the community to a special event, A Nakashima Morning, taking place on Saturday, March 29, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon in the Orangery on the Newtown Campus. This engaging program, sponsored by the Volta Center for Writing Arts and Bucks County Community College Libraries, is designed for all ages, offering families and community members an opportunity to explore the artistry and philosophy of the renowned woodworker George Nakashima through storytelling, poetry, and hands-on activities. The event will feature a reading of the children’s book Listening to Trees: George Nakashima, Woodworker by its author, Holly Thompson. Attendees will have the unique chance to engage in a discussion with Thompson, followed by an interactive haiku and art-making session, allowing participants to creatively respond to Nakashima’s legacy and appreciation for nature. Additionally, the event will feature a discussion with Mira Nakashima, daughter of George Nakashima and a distinguished designer in her own right. Mira will share insights into her father’s life, work, and the enduring influence of his craftsmanship in contemporary woodworking and design. "A Nakashima Morning" is an excellent opportunity for families and individuals to immerse themselves in the intersection of art, literature, and nature, honoring one of Bucks County’s most celebrated artisans.
