The 'Second Chance Society’ Bill

The 'Second Chance Society’ Bill

In 2015, Connecticut Governor Dannel P. Malloy signed the "Second Chance Society" bill. The package of initiatives is designed to continue the progress being made in reducing the state's dropping crime rate, which is at a 48-year low, as well as ensuring nonviolent offenders are successfully reintegrated into society and become productive workers in Connecticut's economy.
