State of Clean Slate 2026

The State of Clean Slate 2026. A Second Chances Month update, co-sponsored by Tide Shift Justice Project, Wilmington Alliance, the Office of Defense Services, and the ACLU of Delaware, on automated expungement in Delaware featuring:

  • Renata Kowalczyk, Wilmington Alliance

  • Alanna Farber, Office of Defense Services

  • A representative from the Office of the Governor

  • And moderated by Kailyn Richards from Tide Shift Justice Project

When the Clean Slate Act passed in 2021, an estimated 290,000+ Delawareans with 590,000+ cases qualified for expungements under the Act. The law went into effect August 1, 2024 and from then through December 31, 2025, Delaware only cleared 26,601 charges for 2025 automatic expungements. At that rate, it would take Delaware over 20 years just to get through the backlog of expungement eligible cases that existed in 2021 when the law passed. Where does Delaware stand now?
