Dequan Jackson Legal + College Fund

Dequan Jackson's story was featured in the NY Times today (August 31, 2016). Let's help this young man pay his court fees, expunge his record, and what is left will be set up in a college trust fund after retaining legal counsel to help make sure the funds are used for this purpose.

It is time to end this injustice and give Dequan the full breathing room to enjoy his second chance.
