The Minnesota Second Chance Coalition (SCC) is an unincorporated coalition of diverse community-based organizations and individuals advocating for fair and responsible laws, policies, and practices that allow those who have committed crimes to redeem themselves, fully support themselves and their families, and contribute to their communities to their full potential.

All coalition activities are funded by donations from individuals and member organizations including significant contributions of in-kind staff time, materials, and other support. Donations to the Second Chance Coalition are managed by its 501c3 fiscal agent, 180 Degrees, and help to cover Second Chance Day on the Hill expense (space rental, t-shirts, buttons, postcards, pamphlets, etc.), educational literature and mailings to state legislators, transportation for community member participation, and website costs. Thank you for your support of the Minnesota Second Chance Coalition.
