“Your Life on the List”: A Survival Guide for those Forced to Register Upon Release
Since 2015, OnceFallen.com has provided the Informational Corrlinks Newsletter (ICoN) and other prisoner outreach services. In an effort to provide numerous resources for prisoners, those new to life on the registry, and those potentially facing life on the registry (many of whom may not have access to the Internet), OnceFallen has compiled the best information from our website and past issues from the ICoN and created “Your Life on the List”, a registry survival guide.
Your Life on the List covers many of the most common questions those new to life on the sex offense registry may have. Topics include an overview of sex offense laws and terminology, finding housing and employment, travel issues, compliance checks, dealing with vigilantes, disaster preparation, and other issues a person may face while listed on the public registry. “Your Life on The List” also lists numerous resources for treatment, support, activism, and housing for Registered Persons.
In addition, “Your Life on The List” contains a comprehensive summary of sex offense registration, notification, proximity/ residency restrictions, and other laws a registrant may endure while on the registry. This valuable section compiles data from multiple resources and expand on it to offer the most comprehensive overview of the laws of all 50 state plus the US territories.
A free PDF version of the guide can be found at:

This guide is fantastic, Derek. Thank you! Thank you!
Derek, reading what you have gone through just to put a roof over your head is unconscionable to me, knowing that you live in the United States of America.
A ray of hope is what a New York City councilman is proposing the “fair chance” housing bill which would bar landlords’ criminal record checks. This would also include released murderers and those on the sex offense registry. The sponsor, Steve Levin, says there is strong support for the bill. The article in the NY Daily News pointed out that one in three black males in the U. S. has a felony conviction, making it difficult for them to access a basic human need like housing. This precludes a huge number of black males from getting housing. This is an issue that Black Lives Matter needs to hear about and promote. So how do we get in touch with them?

A Tireless Soul, that NEVER EVER STOPS Working for all Registrants!
Thank You Mr. Derek!
I have been doing prisoner outreach for a while now and this book is part of that effort.
Even at this low rate, prisoners may not be able to buy copies, so would anyone be willing to sponsor a project to buy copies of this book for indigent inmates?
Appreciate the time you took to compile all of that information Derek.

As an FYI, my latest edits to the PDF version is now available at the link I posted.
I’ve also been told that these changes can be made to the books too since Amazon prints on demand, so and edits made to the book will be reflected in future editions to print copies once the edits are submitted to Amazon.com
Thanks Derek!
