The Nolan Center for Justice recently teamed up with the Masters in Applied Economics Program at Florida State University. Graduate students conducted a cost benefit analysis of a clean slate law in Florida. Students found that the State of Florida stands to gain up to $95 million by implementing Clean Slate. Aside from the benefits to taxpayers, the Nolan Center believes that Clean Slate laws provide the opportunity for people to move on past a mistake and become productive members of their community.
The Clean Slate team won the Best Applied Research at the annual symposium.
