A second chance, planned together.

What we stand for

Advocacy

We stand beside you in the systems that decide your future — the courts, the agencies, and the paperwork in between.

Accountability

We document what happens, name what is unfair, and press the people in charge for answers they owe you.

Support

Practical help for whatever is in front of you today — records, housing, work, benefits, and family.

New Beginnings

A plan for what comes next, because a record or a sentence should never be the end of your story.

About Planned Restart

A stronger tomorrow
is possible

Planned Restart is a nonprofit organization built for the people the system most often leaves behind — the ones navigating a case alone, the families carrying the cost of a sentence, and the neighbors starting over with a record that follows them.

We began in Jacksonville because that is where the need was closest to us. From Duval County outward across Florida, we provide direct support, plain-language guidance, and a steady voice when someone needs the system to answer for what it has done.
