Ohio Governor’s Expedited Pardon Project</a>.  The project is aimed at enhancing and expediting the pardon application process in Ohio for people meeting certain criteria who can show that they have been rehabilitated and have contributed positively to their
 communities after completing their sentences.  The project was established in collaboration between Ohio Governor Mike DeWine and Project Team members the Drug Enforcement and Policy Center at The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law, and the Reentry
 Clinic at The University of Akron School of Law.  The project was recently expanded to include additional service providers, including the University of Dayton School of Law, Cleveland State University Cleveland-Marshall College of Law, and Ohio Justice &
 Policy Center in partnership with the University of Cincinnati College of Law.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
