Cherokee Nation will host a two-day ‘Expungement Expo’ on May 19 and 20 at the Chota Center in Tahlequah. The event is open to eligible Cherokee citizens and eligible citizens of other federally recognized tribes seeking to clear their criminal records. Cherokee Nation citizens will also be connected to programs and services that support long-term stability and success.

The inaugural Expungement Expo is being held in partnership with Oklahoma Indian Legal Services and will provide free legal screenings, application assistance and support for filing expungement petitions for criminal convictions in state court under Oklahoma law.

The goal is to reduce barriers to employment, housing, education and financial stability while strengthening Cherokee families and communities.
