Learn More...

The Pinellas County Ex-Offender Coalition (PERC) was established for one core purpose: to assist ex-offenders in their efforts to successfully re-enter society and to be a resource for those wishing to help. While primarily supporting Pinellas County we also provide information on services available through out the state, and some resources across the country.

We encourage any coalition or provider to list their services in our various directories and to post meetings, events and local news items that affect ex-offenders. By doing so, we can all remain well informed, and learn from each other.
