A felony record shouldn't mean sleeping in your car. But right now, most landlords won't even look at your application. The resources exist. They're just scattered across dozens of websites, nonprofits, and word-of-mouth networks. FairChance puts them all in one place.

Three directories. One platform.

Everything you need to rebuild, organized by where you live.

🏠

Housing Directory

Verified second-chance landlords, apartment complexes, and leasing agents. Filtered by city, ZIP code, and what they accept. No more guessing which door to knock on.

💼

Employment Assistance

Felon-friendly employers, job training programs, and workforce development resources. Organized by industry and location so you can start earning immediately.

🤝

Community Services

Reentry programs, legal aid, substance abuse support, mentorship, and social services. The full network of organizations that exist to help, finally in one searchable directory.

Built for people who've been told "no" too many times

FairChance doesn't just list resources. It organizes them by State, County, City, and ZIP Code so you find exactly what's available where you are. No scrolling through national databases hoping something is nearby.

Thoughtful screening. Not blanket rejection.

Each resource in our directory has its own criteria. We show you exactly what they accept so you don't waste time applying to places that won't work.

Felony Types Accepted

Drug, property, non-violent -- each listing clearly shows what offenses they work with.

Time Requirements

Some require time since conviction, others don't. We show this upfront so you know before you call.

Additional Requirements

Program participation, income verification, sobriety -- every requirement listed clearly.

Verified Resources

Every listing is sourced from public reentry networks and verified organizations in Texas.

Reentry shouldn't mean starting from zero

FairChance exists because everyone who's paid their debt deserves a real shot at stability. A home. A job. A community that doesn't look away.
