Graduate Student at New York University's School of Journalism seeks former sex offenders for research project.

via e-mail request from CURE

Tracy Levy is currently doing research for a long form article on the topic of people who have been convicted of sexual offenses and the process they go through when reintegrating back in to society.

For this article, Tracy is hoping to meet with people in this community as well as the people who work with them. This would include people who have been convicted of a sexual offense, along with therapists, social workers, defense attorneys as well as people in CURE who advocate on behalf of this community.

Tracy would like to interview these people about the obstacles that convicted sex offenders face after they have served their sentence, specifically sex offender registries and the restrictions on housing and jobs and how these issues intersect with human rights and the criminal justice system in the US.

If you could forward this information to people in the New York area who may be interested in speaking about this, Tracy would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Sincerely,
Tracy Levy
