Our Vision
NARSOL envisions a society free from public shaming, dehumanizing registries, discrimination, and unconstitutional laws.
Our Mission
NARSOL opposes dehumanizing registries by working to eliminate the laws, policies, and practices that propagate them.
Our Goals
NARSOL will:
- promote laws targeting harmful acts rather than entire classes of people;
- advocate for the abolishment of dehumanizing registries as they are ineffective, wasteful, and contradictory to rehabilitation and public safety;
- seek out and support programs which effectively prevent new sexual offenses through intervention and community education;
- support removal of residency and proximity restrictions against registrants after their court-imposed sentence is satisfied;
- support litigation and legislation which remove or prevent retroactive increases in registration requirements and restrictions;
- promote laws which replace lifetime supervision/parole with a system that includes ongoing assessments for termination of supervision;
- encourage fair and balanced trials, proportional sentencing, reasonable statutes of limitation, and the elimination of mandatory minimum sentencing;
- discourage discrimination, violence, and vigilantism toward those accused or convicted of a sexual offense;
- seek out and support programs which effectively reintegrate and rehabilitate former offenders;
- and promote healthy, trusting human interaction by replacing fear and panic with solid facts and reason.
