Your Social Security Card is an important item of identi.cation and can be used to: • con.rm identity when applying for public assistance • verify citizenship • con.rm employment eligibility to perspective employers If you do not have a social security card, it is very important that you obtain one from the United States Social Security Administration, or request a copy of your previously issued card if it has been lost. (NOTE: Once obtained, keep in a private, safe place to deter identity theft). The Social Security Administration has speci.c procedures which must be followed to obtain your new or replacement card. Selected sections from the SSA form SS-5 follow: IMPORTANT: If you have never been assigned a social security number before, you MUST apply in person. Evidence Documents are required and are based on the type of request. If your documents do not meet requirements, your application cannot be processed. • The SSA requires ORIGINAL documents or copies certi.ed by the custodian of the record. • The SSA cannot accept photocopies or notarized copies of documents. The SSA will return your documents after they have seen them. Original Card: To apply for an original card, you will need to provide at least two documents to prove age, identity, and U.S. citizenship or current lawful, work-authorized immigration status. Replacement Card: To apply for a replacement card, you must prove your identity. If you were born outside of the U.S., you will also need to prove your U.S. citizenship or current lawful, work-authorized immigration status.

(See Driver License Examining Division, Driver Manual) Fee is involved and may vary depending on your situation. The above website contains a link to the Oklahoma Driver’s Manual and a link to a list of all Driver License Examination stations state-wide so that you will be able to locate the one nearest to you. If your Oklahoma Driver’s License has been suspended or revoked, please refer to the manual, Section 4, Chapters 13 and 14 to see if you are eligible to apply for a new license. Section 1, Chapters 1 and 2 explain the process for obtaining your Oklahoma Driver License, including what documentation you will need to take with you, what fees are applicable, and where you will get the actual license. The Driver License Examination stations do not issue the actual license, their responsibility is to administer the tests (vision screening, written test, driving test). If you meet all the necessary requirements to receive an Oklahoma Driver’s License, the examiner will give you written veri.cation of such, which you will then take to an Oklahoma Tag Agent. The Tag Agent will take the written veri. cation, your payment of applicable fees, and issue your Driver’s License. There are many Oklahoma Tag Agencies statewide. You may consult your local phone book, yellow pages “tag agencies”, to .nd a tag agent nearest to you. Many of the steps are the same when obtaining a state issued photo ID as obtaining a driver’s license. You will not need to test, but you will have to have proper identi. cation documentation. Below is a list of acceptable “primary” and “secondary” identi.cation. For both the Oklahoma state driver’s license and the Oklahoma state identi. cation card, you will need one primary document AND one secondary document. Primary proof of identi.cation: • Certi.ed birth certi.cate • Passport • Identi.cation documents issued by the U.S. Armed Services • United States Bureau of Indian Affairs identi.cation card or an Oklahoma tribal photo identi.cation card from one of the following tribes: • Kiowa • Comanche • Apache of Oklahoma • Absentee Shawnee • Cheyenne-Arapaho (only tribal cards with color photo) • State of Oklahoma identi.cation card issued by Department of Public Safety • Documents issued by the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service • Oklahoma drivers license, or out-of-state drivers license • Finger image comparison, if a Department-generated .nger image is already on .le with the Department of Public Safety or the Department of Corrections. Secondary proof of identi.cation: • Any primary proof of identi.cation listed above that is not used as the primary identi.cation document of the applicant. • Any person under the age of 18 may produce an af.davit signed by the parent or legal guardian • Photo identi.cation card that is issued by an Oklahoma: • public, private, or parochial secondary school • institution of higher education • technology center school • employer • Oklahoma gun permit • Pilot license • Oklahoma lifetime hunting or . shing license • Oklahoma voter identi. cation card • Social Security card • Health insurance card • Motor vehicle registration or title • Marriage license • Separation or divorce judgment • High school, technology center, college, or university diploma • Professional degree, certi.cate, or license • Deed or title to property in Oklahoma (including a burial plot deed) • Health, life, or home insurance policy issued to the applicant • Automobile insurance policy or security veri.cation form issued to the applicant • Valid U.S.D.O.T. health card • Digital photograph comparison, if a Department-generated digital photograph is already on .le with the Department of Public Safety or the Department of Corrections Back to Table of Contents Certi.cate of Degree of Indian or Alaska Native Blood (CDIB) Adapted from Tribal af. liated websites Fees vary A Certi.cate of Degree of Indian Blood or Certi.cate of Degree of Alaska Native Blood (CDIB), is an of.cial U.S. document that certi.es an individual possesses a speci.c degree of Indian blood of a federally recognized Indian tribe, band, nation, pueblo, village, or community. CDIB cards are issued by the Bureau of Indian Affairs after the applicant supplies a completed genealogy with supporting legal documents such as birth certi.cates, showing their descent, through one or both birth parents, from an enrolled Indian or an Indian listed in a base roll such as the Dawes Rolls. Blood degree cannot be obtained through adoptive parents. The blood degree on previously issued CDIB cards or on the base rolls in the .ler’s ancestry are used to determine the .ler’s blood degree (unless the tribe challenges the accuracy of the documentation). Information collected for the .ling is held con.dential by privacy laws. A Certi.cate Degree of Indian Blood does not establish membership in a tribe. Tribal membership is determined by tribal laws and may or may not require a CDIB card or may require a separate tribal determination of ancestry or blood degree. Your application for a CDIB card will begin with your tribe of af.liation. You will need to contact them to obtain their speci.c application and instructions. For your convenience, a list of the most populous Oklahoma tribes and their contact information is listed below. Many Tribes offer a wide range of programs to their members; everything from medical treatment, food pantries, housing assistance, to college tuition assistance. Not all Tribes offer the same programs. You will need to check with your Tribe to see what programs they may offer that would be of assistance to you.

Back to Table of Contents INSTRUCTION AND INFORMATION SHEET FOR SF 180, REQUEST PERTAINING TO MILITARY RECORDS 1. General Information. The Standard Form 180, Request Pertaining to Military Records (SF180) is used to request information from military records. Certain identifying information is necessary to determine the location of an individual's record of military service. Please try to answer each item on the SF 180. If you do not have and cannot obtain the information for an item, show "NA," meaning the information is "not available." Include as much of the requested information as you can. To determine where to mail this request see Page 2 of the SF180 for record locations and facility addresses. Online requests may be submitted to the National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) by a veteran or deceased veteran’s next of kin using eVetRecs at http://www.archives.gov/veterans/evetrecs/. 2. Personnel records and Service Treatment Records (STR). Personnel records of military members who were discharged, retired, or died in service less than 62 years ago and STR’s are in the legal custody of the military service department and are administered in accordance with rules issued by the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS, Coast Guard). STR’s of persons on active duty are generally kept at the local servicing clinic, and usually are available from the Department of Veterans Affairs approximately 40 days after the last day of active duty. (See item 3, Archival Records, if the military member was discharged, retired or died in service over 62 years ago.) a. Release of information: Release of information is subject to restrictions imposed by the military services consistent with Department of Defense regulations and the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and the Privacy Act of 1974. The service member (either past or present) or the member's legal guardian has access to almost any information contained in that member's own record. An authorization signature, of the service member or the member's legal guardian, is needed in Section III of the SF180. Others requesting information from military personnel records and/or STR’s must have the release authorization in Section III of the SF 180 signed by the member or legal guardian. If the appropriate signature cannot be obtained, only limited types of information can be provided. If the former member is deceased, surviving next of kin may, under certain circumstances, be entitled to greater access to a deceased veteran's records than a member of the general public. The next of kin may be any of the following: unremarried surviving spouse, father, mother, son, daughter, sister, or brother. Requesters must provide proof of death, such as a copy of a death certificate, letter from funeral home or obituary. b. Fees for records: There is no charge for most services provided to service members or next of kin of deceased veterans. A nominal fee is charged for certain types of service. In most instances service fees cannot be determined in advance. If your request involves a service fee, you will be notified as soon as that determination is made. 3. Archival Records. Personnel records of military members who were discharged, retired, or died in service 62 or more years ago have been transferred to the legal custody of NARA and are referred to as “archival” records. a. Release of Information: Archival records are open to the public. The Privacy Act of 1974 does not apply to archival records, therefore, written authorization from the veteran or next of kin is not required. However, in order to protect the privacy of the veteran, his/her family, and third parties named in the records, the personal privacy exemption of the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552 (b) (6)) may still apply and preclude the release of some information. b. Fees for Archival Records: Access to archival records is granted by offering copies of the records for a fee (44 U.S.C. 2116 (c)). You will be notified if there is a charge for photocopies of documents contained in the record you are requesting. 4. Where reply may be sent. The reply may be sent to the service member or any other address designated by the service member or other authorized requester. 5. Definitions and abbreviations. DISCHARGED -- the individual has no current military status; SERVICE TREATMENT RECORD (STR) -- The chronology of medical, mental health and dental care received by service members during the course of their military career (does not include records of treatment while hospitalized); TDRL – Temporary Disability Retired List. 6. Service completed before World War I. National Archives Trust Fund (NATF) forms must be used to request these records. Obtain the forms by e-mail from inquire@nara.gov or write to the Code 6 address on page 2 of the SF 180. PRIVACY ACT OF 1974 COMPLIANCE INFORMATION The following information is provided in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(3) and applies to this form. Authority for collection of the information is 44 U.S.C. 2907, 3101, and 3103, and Public Law 104-134 (April 26, 1996), as amended in title 31, section 7701. Disclosure of the information is voluntary. If the requested information is not provided, it may delay servicing your inquiry because the facility servicing the service member's record may not have all of the information needed to locate it. The purpose of the information on this form is to assist the facility servicing the records (see the address list) in locating the correct military service record(s) or information to answer your inquiry. This form is then retained as a record of disclosure. The form may also be disclosed to Department of Defense components, the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS, U.S. Coast Guard), or the National Archives and Records Administration when the original custodian of the military health and personnel records transfers all or part of those records to that agency. If the service member was a member of the National Guard, the form may also be disclosed to the Adjutant General of the appropriate state, District of Columbia, or Puerto Rico, where he or she served. PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT PUBLIC BURDEN STATEMENT Public burden reporting for this collection of information is estimated to be five minutes per request, including time for reviewing instructions and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding the burden estimate or any other aspect of the collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to National Archives and Records Administration (NHP), 8601 Adelphi Road, College Park, MD 20740-6001.

Automatic Restoration of Rights: Persons “convicted of a felony” may not register to vote “for a period of time equal to the time prescribed in the judgment and sentence.” Okla. Stat. tit. 26, § 4­101(1). Felony offenders and persons convicted of a misdemeanor involving embezzlement are disqualified from office for 15 years after completion of sentence or until pardoned. §§ 5-105a(A), (B). (Permanent disqualification for a member of the legislature who is convicted of specified offenses. Okla. Const. art. V, § 18; Okla. Stat. tit. 21, § 312.) Persons who have been convicted of any felony or who have served a term of imprisonment in any penitentiary, state or federal, for the commission of a felony may not sit on a jury, unless that person has been “fully restored to his or her civil rights” (which in Oklahoma means a pardon). Okla. Stat. tit. 38, § 28(C)(6). II. Discretionary Restoration Mechanisms: A. Executive pardon: • Authority: Governor’s pardon power cannot be exercised except pursuant to a favorable recommendation from a majority of the Board of Pardon and Parole. Okla. Const. art. VI, § 10. Governor must report to the legislature on each clemency grant at each regular session, though no requirement that he state his reasons. Okla. Const. art. VI, § 10 (Governor must also approve all parole decisions, and commutation recommendations are interspersed with parole recommendation on monthly report to the Governor. See http://www.ppb.state.ok.us (Docket Results, Hearing Schedule).) • Administration: Board has five members, three of which are appointed by Governor, other two, respectively, by Chief Justice of Supreme Court and presiding judge of the Oklahoma Criminal Court of Appeals. Id. Their terms expire with the Governor’s. The board chooses their own chairman. Okla. Stat. tit. 57, § 332.4(A). Okla. Const. art. VI, § 10 provides: “It shall be the duty of the Board to make an impartial investigation and study of applicants for commutations, pardons or paroles, and by a majority vote make its recommendations to the Governor of all deemed worthy of clemency. Provided, the Pardon and Parole Board shall have no authority to make recommendations regarding parole for convicts sentenced to death or sentenced to life imprisonment without parole.” • Eligibility: Eligibility after service of sentence – or after five years of supervised parole whichever is shorter. Supervision may be terminated after three years – but then you have to wait until your parole runs out. Margaret Colgate Love, Relief from the Collateral Consequences of a Criminal Conviction, October 2005 Back to Table of Contents OK2 Persons convicted in other states and federal offenders ineligible. Misdemeanants may apply if they are not eligible for expungement, and if the applicant can demonstrate that the misdemeanor is prohibiting them from something like holding a state license. See Pardon and Parole Board, Policies and Procedures Manual (2000), Policy 004 (Eligibility Criteria) (available from Pardon and Parole Board). • Effect: Pardon generally restores all legal rights lost as a result of conviction, except that firearms privileges are separately and specifically restored. A person convicted of a violent felony may not possess guns even with a pardon. See Okla. Stat. tit. § 1283(A), amended by 2005 Okla. Sess. Laws ch. 190. See also § 1283(B)(person convicted of a nonviolent felony who has received a “full and complete pardon” regains gun rights, including right to serve as peace officer, and to carry a concealed weapon). Ordinarily pardon does not serve as grounds for expungement, though non-violent first offenders who have been pardoned may seek expungement ten years after conviction. § 18(8) (see below). (See also juvenile expungement at § 18(5).) According to pardon instructions, it may or may not help with licensing decision depending on profession: “A pardon has little direct effect under Oklahoma law. However, it can be useful in helping you to present yourself as a responsible citizen. A pardon serves as recognition that you have adjusted well to society since completing your sentence.” Pardon Application Instructions, Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board Website, http://www.ppb.state.ok.us/ (accessed May 27, 2005). • Process: Public hearing, majority vote, public record. Applicant must submit completed application form, and documents relating to conviction, including proof that fines and restitution paid; credit report, proof of employment and residence, etc.) Investigation conducted by parole officer of DOC – applicant advised to be candid, and to present himself as a “responsible and productive citizen.” (“Information you might consider negative will not necessarily hurt your application. It may serve to show how you were able to overcome a problem and actually improve your chances of receiving a Pardon.”) When an applicant lives in a different state, information is requested from authorities there about employment and living arrangements. Application with report from DOC then submitted to Board for consideration. Pardon and Parole Board, Policies and Procedures Manual, supra, Policy 004-10 (Pardon Consideration). . The Board holds a public hearing in every case and may take official action only in open public meeting, pursuant to the Oklahoma Open Meeting Act. Okla. Stat. tit. 57, § 332.2(G). Unlike hearings in commutation cases, however, where the applicant, official witnesses, and victim are all entitled to appear and give testimony, hearings on Pardon Applications are held by "Jacket Review", meaning that the applicant is not ordinarily present. Okla. Admin. Code § 515:1-7-1(d)(1). The Board Margaret Colgate Love, Relief from the Collateral Consequences of a Criminal Conviction, October 2005 Back to Table of Contents OK3 may grant the applicant the opportunity to appear, but this is very rare and has happened only once in the last eight years. Pardon Application Instructions, supra. According to Board staff, the process generally takes about six months to complete. Board meets once a month or at the call of the chairman. Board must provide prosecutors list of those to be considered 20 days before hearing and notify victims as well. Okla. Stat. tit. 57, § 332.2(C); Okla. Admin. Code § 515:1-5-2(d). In the rare case that a pardon applicant is permitted to appear, victims, members of public, officials, and applicants themselves may all speak at hearing, subject to strict time limitations. Okla. Admin. Code § 515:1-7-1(d). Recommendations must be posted on Board’s website. Okla. Admin. Code § 515:1-5-2(b). Board forwards favorable recommendations to Governor within 30 days, and Governor has 90 days to act. Okla. Stat. tit. 57, § 332.19. If he doesn’t approve, it is deemed denied. Id. • Frequency of Grants: For at least the past ten years the Oklahoma Governor has approved about 100 pardons every year (about 80% of those that apply) and many hundreds of commutations. Recently the Board has received eight to 15 applications for pardon per month. Source: Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board. • Contact: Cary Pirrong, General Counsel, Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board, cary.pirrong@ppb.state.ok.us. 405-602-5863, ext. 228. B. Judicial sealing or expungement of adult felony convictions: • Authority: District court in jurisdiction where records are located. Okla. Stat tit. 22, § 19(A). • Eligibility: First offender misdemeanors may be “expunged” 10 years after judgment. Okla. Stat. tit. 22, § 18(7). Non-violent first offender felony offenders who have received “a full pardon” may also petition to have the record “expunged” after 10 years. §§ 18(8), 19(A). Expungement means “sealing” of records. § 18.* • Effect: If records sealed, it is as if conviction never took place, and person may not be required to disclose it by employers, state, and local government agencies, educational institutions, and an applicant for job or benefit may deny existence of conviction. Such an application may not be denied solely because of the applicant's refusal to disclose arrest and criminal records information that has been sealed. Okla. Stat. tit. 22, § * Section 8 provides that “Records expunged pursuant to paragraph 9 of this section shall be sealed to the public but not to law enforcement agencies for law enforcement purposes.” Paragraph (9) of § 18(9) affords relief for victims of identity fraud. It is not clear what implications this provision has for records expunged pursuant to other paragraphs of § 18. Margaret Colgate Love, Relief from the Collateral Consequences of a Criminal Conviction, October 2005 Back to Table of Contents OK4 19(D). Any conviction that has been sealed may be ordered “obliterated or destroyed” after another 10 years. § 19(K). • Process: The purpose of the expungement provisions is to aid those who are acquitted, exonerated, or who otherwise deserve a second chance at a clean record. Once an applicant seeking to expunge criminal records meets the presumption of harm, the State must show that the public interest in keeping the records does not harm privacy interests and serves the ends of justice. Okla. Stat. tit. 22, § 19 . See Hoover v. State, 29 P.3d 591 (Okla. Crim. App. 2001) (as amended). • Articles: Stacy Morey & Dave Stockwell, Expunging criminal records under Title 22, §§ 18, 19 and 991c, 74 OKLA. B.J. 829 (2003); Edward D. Hasbrook, Expungement: Second-chance statutes, 66 OKLA. B.J. 2503 (1995). • Deferral of sentencing, probation leading to expungement: Section 991c authorizes court to defer judgment for a period not to exceed five years in the case of first offenders (with consent of the DA), and to require defendant to meet a variety of community-based conditions. Okla. Stat. tit. 22, § 991c(A). Successful completion of conditions may lead to expungement. § 991c(C). See also Oklahoma Community Sentencing Act, Okla. Stat. tit. 22, § 988.1 (enacted in 1999). Section 988.1 gives sentencing court a wide menu of sentencing options for eligible offenders (eligibility determined pursuant to a risk-based index). Section 988.19 requires court to give first consideration to deferring prison sentence pursuant to § 991(c). C. Administrative certificate: N/A III. Nondiscrimination in Licensing and Employment: No public or private employer may ask about or consider a sealed conviction. An applicant for employment need not, in answer to any question concerning arrest and criminal records, provide information that has been sealed, “and may state that no such action has ever occurred.” Such an application “may not be denied solely because of the applicant's refusal to disclose arrest and criminal records information that has been sealed.” Okla. Stat. tit. 22, § 19(F).

However, many individuals, the general public and ex-offenders alike, have diff culty securing and maintaining independent residences because their monthly income is not enough to handle all the expenses associated with independent living. Below is a list of Oklahoma housing authorities which may be able to assist you in the form of housing programs and information. These agencies will have very specif c guidelines and regulations regarding who will be able to receive funding, most of which are HUD (Housing and Urban Development, a federal agency) regulate d. Often times, certain previous felony convictions are barriers to being eligible for assistance. You will need to check with the agency to see if you meet specif c eligibility requirements. The Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency provides a comprehensive resource guide for affordable housing in Oklahoma. You can view this resource guide at: http://ohfa.org/OHFA/new/About/Affordable%20Housing%20Handbook.pdf.

For your convenience Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency can be contact at the following: OK Housing Finance Agency - 100 NW 63rd - Suite 200 -Oklahoma City, OK 73116 / (405) 848-1144 - Toll-free (800) 256-1489 - http://www.ohfa.org Back to Table of Contents 2-1-1 Community Referral Service What is 2-1-1? 2-1-1 is an easy to remember telephone number that connects people with important community services and volunteer opportunitie s. While services that are offered through 2-1-1 vary from community to community, 2-1-1 provides callers with information about, and referrals to, human service organizations for every day needs and in times of crisis. Utilities Another barrier to independent living is the cost of utilities in your unit.Although few, some units include all utilities in the rent and are generally advertised as “All Bills Paid”. However, for those that do not, there are three major utilities you may need to check into; electricity, water (trash and sewage are usually included), and natural gas (or propane). You can expect all utility companies to require a deposit before turning on your service. Sometimes, the companies will work w ith you by allowing you to pay out the deposit monthly with you regular usage bill. Also, if you have had service with that company in the past and left an unpaid bill, they will generally not turn on service until the old bill is paid and a new deposit is also paid. If you have any of these concerns, you may seriously want to consider something that is ALL BILLS PAID realizing that the basic rental amount is probably higher than what you would pay for a similar rental where you pay all the bills. There are several companies that provide electricity to Oklahoma residents and there are several natural gas companies as well.Knowing which utility company services your area can be as simple as contacting anyone in the utility department of the city of f ces for the town/city that you will be residing and asking which company you need to contact. If you should be able to secure your own residence and f nd that you are temporarily experiencing dif f culty in paying your utilities, there are organizations that may be help you. Many Salvation Army agencies have utility assistance programs, as well as many Community Action Agencies, and local churches. You will need to research the resources in your area. Clothing Many churches that operate food pantries also have limited clothing. Many Salvation Armies and Good Wills also have thrift sto res that carry used clothing. Generally these items must be purchased, but at a greatly reduced price, just as the local thrift stores throughout the state.If you have a community action agency in your area, you may contact them for a referral to the nearest location that will be able to help you obtain necessary clothing. Another valuable resource would be the United Way. Since many non-proft agencies are funded or partially funded by the United Way, they would be able to provide you with contact information regarding places in your area who are able to supply you with free or low-cost clothing. Food Assistance in obtaining food may be possible for you upon release through your local Department of Human Services agency. There are county off ces in each county, and some counties have more than one off ce (for example, Oklahoma County, and Tulsa County).

Other than pregnancy or child related issues, county health departments do not provide general medical treatment to adults. However, most urban areas have “free clinics” available to those who are uninsured or underinsured, but you may have dif.culty locating such services in the rural communities. One invaluable resource for locating “free clinics”, and other community services in your area is 2-1-1. (Please refer to page 11.)

They are honesty, strategic job searching, and effec­tive interviewing. The .rst, and probably most important thing to remember, is that you should never lie about your background. Under no circumstances should you ever violate this rule when it comes to employment. Starting any relationship, especially one as important as an employment relationship, on a lie is never a good idea. It will come back to haunt you. Yes it is possible to get away with it in the short run every now and then, but it will eventually catch up with you. Employers will be naturally apprehensive about hiring someone with a felony background, so when you lie about the felony, you will be feeding into their fears and perpetuating the perception that felons can’t be trusted. The next step is the strategic job search. This is where it pays to invest in researching the companies that are open to hiring someone with a criminal record. Connecting with your local workforce center is an ideal way of .nding the employers in your community that are open to giving someone a second chance. The workforce centers have professionals who understand your situ­ation, deal with ex-felons on a daily basis, and are trained to provide you with the latest information and employment referrals. The good ones have a network of employers who will give you an opportunity. A .nal note on the strategic job search is in order here. Understand that your background may prohibit you from ever getting certain types of employment again. This may be a bitter pill to swallow, but it’s reality. The last strategy is knowing how to make the most of an employment opportunity with an effective interview. Be honest, but don’t give someone all the details. This is especially important if your felony dealt with violence or other sensitive events. This will do more harm than good and may frighten a potential employer. Resist the urge to re-try your case with the employer. Telling them how you were not guilty or were framed for the crime will not result in you getting hired. Express remorse for the event and how you have moved on with your life. This Applications If you are asked about felony convictions on the application, put “will discuss during interview.” Since the purpose of an application is to get an interview for the job, putting “will discuss” instead of the possibly damaging information, you are encouraging the employer to either give you the interview to get more information, or eliminate you without really knowing why. If you are a quali.ed applicant, most employers will want to interview you. Remember: When you . ll out an application in a company’s employment of.ce you should be groomed and dressed as if you were going on an interview. Sometimes you will be interviewed on the spot. When you .le an application don’t forget about it and hope the employer calls you. Follow-up usually after 5-7 days. A phone call to check on the status of your application is recommended. In fact, the best advice any job seeker can get is “Don’t give up!” There will probably be many rejections before you get a job. However, if you’re willing to work at getting a job, you will be successful. AVOID SLANG WHEN EXPLAINING A FELONY CONVICTION TO AN EMPLOYER For an ex-offender, the most dreaded part of the job search can be explaining a felony conviction to a potential employer. Many ex-offenders have never honestly answered the question, “Have you ever been convicted of a crime?” on an application. As a result, they drift in and out of employment, staying with a job until the employer .nds out through a background check, a call from a parole of. cer, etc. Ex-offenders may be .red for falsifying information on their job application, not because they are ex-offenders. A company may hire ex-offenders, but have a policy of terminating anyone for lying on the application. It is up to you whether you tell a potential employer about felony convictions. But we believe that “honesty is the best policy.” Research shows that HOW you communicate this information makes a difference. You must see yourself as a worthwhile and valuable asset who has the skills and abilities an employer needs, not as an ex-convict unworthy of employment. You need a positive self-image and con.dence in your skills and abilities. Seven Tips for Effective Resume Writing · Pay attention to detail—Don’t cut corners by, for instance, not proofreading the cover letter, failing to include information the hiring manager asked for, or beginning the cover letter “Dear Sir or Madam” when the hiring manager’s name is on the company web site. Take the time to make sure the correspondence and information sent is correct and error-free. · Do the basics—Proofread for spelling, grammar, and tone, and make sure you have followed the instructions of the employer. Firing off an e-mail is a convenient method of communication. However, don’t let the sloppy nature and informality of e-mail correspondence seep into your communications—whether it’s e-mailed or written—with potential employers. · Construct an effective resume—Organize your information in a logical fashion and keep descriptions clear and to the point. Include as much work experience as possible, even if it obviously doesn’t relate to the job you are seeking. Also, use a simple, easy-to-read font. · Customize your correspondence—Address the hiring manager directly, and include the name of the company and the position for which it is hiring in your cover letter/e-mail response. · Make it easy for the hiring manager—Use your name and the word “resume” in your e-mail header so it’s easy to identify. If the employer asks for information—such as references or writing samples—provide it. · Focus on what you bring to the employer, not what you want from the job. This is an opportunity for you to market yourself and stand out from the other candidates. What can you do to make the hiring manager’s life easier? What can you do to help the company? · Be professional—You won’t be taken seriously if you don’t have e-mail or voice mail/answering machine. If you don’t have e-mail, set up a free account. Even though you may not own your own personal computer, most public libraries offer free internet access. The next several pages will provide a list of public libraries in Oklahoma. For a complete listing of Oklahoma Public Libraries with web links visit: http://www.publiclibraries.com/oklahoma.htm Some of the more popular free email services are: GMail Yahoo Hotmail Clicking any one of the links above will provide detailed instructions for setting up a free email account. Provide the recruiter with a cell phone number if your voice mail/ answering machine doesn’t pick up when you are online. Also, it’s a good idea to ditch the cute e-mail address or voice mail/answering machine messages in favor of something that sounds professional. FEDERAL BONDING PROGRAM The Federal Bonding Program provides individual .delity bonds to employers for job applicants who have a barrier to employment. Any at-risk job applicant is eligible for bonding services, including: · Ex-offenders, ex-addicts; welfare recipients and other persons having poor credit, poor youth who lack a work history, individuals dishonorably discharged from the military; and · Anyone who cannot secure employment without bonding. · Persons who are not bondable can ultimately become commercially bondable be demonstrating job honesty during the six months of bond coverage under the Federal Bonding Program. If you are seeking bonding services and/or a job you should call the following toll-free number for 1. the location of the workforce of.ce/one-stop center nearest your home and, 2. the telephone number of the State Bonding Coordinator for your state. The application procedure is simple, and can be done at any Workforce Of.ce or by telephone. Call toll free: (877) 872-5627.

To .ll the need for computer knowledge, many libraries offer internet access and are expanding their resources to include services designed to develop keyboarding skills and other computer familiarity. In addition to libraries, Workforce Oklahoma of.ces provide access to computers and the internet. Access to the Internet means access to the world! Lesson 1: Understanding the Basics Internet - The Internet is a network of computers spanning the globe. This communication structure is a system connecting more than .fty million people in countries around the world. A global Web of computers, the Internet allows individuals to communicate with each other. Often called the World Wide Web, the Internet provides a quick and easy exchange of information and is recognized as the central tool in this Information Age. Internet Browser - An Internet browser is a software program that enables you to access and navigate the Internet by viewing Web pages on your computer. The label Internet Browser describes a software program that provides users with a graphical interface that allows them to connect to the Internet and “surf the Web.” Simply speaking, a browser is a software program that enables you to view Web pages on your computer. Web Site - A site or area on the World Wide Web that is accessed by its own Internet address is called a Web site. A Web site can be a collection of related Web pages. Each Web site contains a home page and may also contain additional pages. Each Web site is owned and updated by an individual, company, or organization. Because the Web is a dynamically moving and changing entity, many Web sites change on a daily or even hourly basis. Web Page - A Web page can be explained as one area of the World Wide Web. Comparable to a page in a book, the basic unit of every Web site or document on the Web is a page. A Web page can be an article, an ordering page, or a single paragraph, and it is usually a combination of text and graphics. Home Page - The term home page has a couple of meanings. It is the Web page that your browser uses when it starts, and also the Web page that appears every time you open your browser. Clicking the home page icon on your browser screen will take you to the speci.c page you have set as your browser’s home page. Home page also refers to the main Web page out of a collection of Web pages. On each site, often you will see home page as a choice on a Menu Bar. Clicking on the word Home on a Web page will take you to the home or main page of that particular Web site. Lesson 2: Title, Menu, and Toolbars Title bar with callout - Let’s take it from the top. The name of the Web site or title of the page you are viewing is found on the top left hand corner of your screen. Traditionally, this horizontal blue bar runs across the entire width of your screen. This blue bar that contains the name of the Web site is called the Title Bar. The Title Bar will serve as a trusty anchor, always letting your know where you are by sharing the title of the Web site you are visiting. This bar does not take you anywhere, but it always lets you know where you are. Menu Bar - Underneath the Title Bar are other bars that can be used for moving around the Internet. If you are looking for quick and easy ways to navigate, the bars located at the top of your screen under the Title Bar will be helpful. One Back to Table of Contents of the most useful bars is the Menu Bar. You will quickly appreciate each of the options found on the Menu Bar. The Menu Bar is the horizontal band that contains commands and options that can be chosen. In Internet Explorer, these selections are File, Edit, View, Favorites, Tools, and Help. Clicking on each of the items in the standard Menu Bar at the top of your page will drop down a menu that is a useful way to access the many features of the Internet Explorer program. The last menu item is the Help item. You will be surprised and relieved how often you will be able to click Help and .nd the answers you need. The Menu Bar is a very useful tool when trying to make your way around a Web site. Because the Menu Bar offers so many helpful functions, the quicker you master File, Edit, View, Favorites, Tools, and Help, the better. It does not take long to learn the purpose of each of these menu items that help you move around the Internet. Tool Bar - As its name implies, this is the area where a lot of work gets done. The Tool Bar is much like the Menu Bar stretching from left to right across the top of your screen just under the Address Bar. Because the Tool Bar is the workhorse of bars, it is larger and contains many useful icons divided into three areas. Each of these icons has a text description of its function under the icon itself. If you do not see the text description, hold your cursor over the icon, and the function of the icon will appear. Either way, it will not take you long to associate each function with its picture. Let’s become familiar with the . rst area which contains .ve icons. The remainder of the icons on the Tool Bar will be explained in later lessons. Back/Forward - The .rst icon on the Tool Bar is the Back Icon. You will be surprised how often you will want to return to a Web page or Web site you enjoyed earlier. Stop and Refresh Icons - It will not take you long to appreciate two other icons found on the Tool Bar. The Stop icon is located to the right of the Back and Forward arrows. Clicking the Stop icon will stop the page you have selected from downloading. This icon is especially useful. Click the Stop icon if a page is taking too long to download. What if you changed your mind and do not want to visit a page? Just click this icon. Occasionally you .nd that you have clicked on a wrong link. Again, the Stop icon to the rescue. Refresh - The next icon is not quite as intuitive as the old familiar Stop icon. It is the Refresh icon. Refresh makes sure you are viewing the latest version of the current Web page. Remember one of the unique characteristics of the Internet is that it is dynamic and .uid. Information is continuously being added, and Web pages are constantly changing. It might be important to you that you are viewing the very latest information. For that reason, you have a Refresh icon. Just click the Refresh icon and your browser will reload the latest version of the page you are viewing. Home Page Icon - In reference to this icon, home page is the Web page that your browser uses when it starts, the Web page that appears every time you open your browser. Clicking the home page icon found on the Tool Bar will take you to the speci.c page you have set as your browser’s home page. Lesson 3: Addresses / Address Bar Address Box - Don’t be afraid of getting lost or overwhelmed on the mammoth Information Highway. There is an easy way to know where you are at all times. One way to keep track of where you are on the Web, especially if you have been moving around by links, is to check out the Address Box. This box gives you the location or address of the current page you are viewing. That unusual word at the top of the page in what is known as the locator box or address box is the address of a Web page. Each Web page has a unique address called a Uniform Resource Locator or URL. The URL (pronounced U-R-L) is the speci.c address of a Web page. Address Bar - The Address Bar is an excellent tool that can be used for navigating the Web. If you know the address of a page you want to visit, type the URL in the Address Bar. Then press Enter on the keyboard or click on the word Go on the right side of the Address Bar. The power of the computer really shines through with a feature called AutoComplete which is built into Internet Explorer. If you start typing a Web address that you have previously used, a list of matching addresses appears. The addresses of all the Web sites that you have visited are kept in the computer memory. Your browser will locate an address that you have previously typed in the Address Bar by searching for similar addresses trying to .nd a match. As you type each letter, the list is re.ned to match your typing. You can choose one of these addresses by simply moving your mouse over the name and clicking. Lesson 4: Navigating Web Pages and Web Sites Hyperlinks - An easy way to move around on the World Wide Web is by hyperlinks, which are sometimes called hot links. These links provide a connection between Web pages that allows for amazingly easy access to other Web pages. A link or hyperlink can be text, an icon, a picture, or an icon that moves a user from one Web page or Web site to another. A hyperlink has an unseen Web address imbedded in it. Positioning your cursor on a hyperlink and clicking your mouse will take you to the Web page whose address is embedded in the hyperlink. So, if I am writing something about The Encyclopedia Britannica, I can simply add a hyperlink to the text and it will become http://www.britannica.com/. You can tell that this text has a hyperlink hidden in it because it is a different color and because it is underlined. Just click on the hyperlinked word and presto—you go off to the world of the underlined word, in this case, the Encyclopedia Britannica Web site. Hyperlinks are a great way to easily .nd out more about a particular word or concept. Slider & Arrows - Scrolling is an easy way to navigate on a Web page. You can scroll up and down and side to side by using either the horizontal or vertical onscreen scroll bars on the bottom and right side of the screen. To scroll using the onscreen scroll bars, simply position your cursor on the slider on the scroll bar. Hold the mouse button down and drag the slider up and/or down on the vertical scroll bar (or side to side on the horizontal scroll bar). You can also position your cursor over the arrows at the top and the bottom of the vertical scroll bar (left and right sides of the horizontal scroll bar) to move one line at a time. Lesson 5: Finding Things Search - Now we are ready to tackle the middle segment of the Tool Bar. Back to those icons that do much of the work for us when sur.ng the Web. The .rst icon in this section is the magnifying glass or the Search icon. Search Icon - The outstanding value of the computer is the access that it offers to information. But users need some help in getting to that great source of information. And here is that help — the Search feature. The computer has a great program to .nd a particular area of content for documents that contain certain keywords, the search feature. To use the Search feature, click the Search icon (magnifying glass) on the Tool Bar and you will gain access to a search engine. In the Search bar, type that word or phrase that describes what you’re looking for. Try to keep your topic as short and speci.c as possible. When your search results appear, you can view the individual Web pages without losing your list of search results. Search Box - You can also search directly from the Address Bar. Just type common names or words, and your browser can automatically take you to the site that most likely matches what you are searching for. Your browser will list other likely sites as well. Just type common names or words in the Address Bar, and then click Go. Favorites - The next icon in this center section of the Tool Bar is Favorites, the real stars of your Internet show. You will easily recognize the folder with the star (asterisk) as your Favorites icon. The real trick to the Internet is having it work for you. There is so much information available that you must be able to manage it rather than it manage you. Favorites are just what they sound like — your favorite sites on the Internet. Better than that, this special function offers you an express ride to your favorite and/or most visited sites on the Web. When you .nd Web sites or pages that you like, you can keep track of them using the Favorites feature, making them easy to return to in the future. Favorites is a customized list of links to your most frequently used and popular online areas or Web sites. Dropdown Favorite List - Wasn’t that a snap. It’s easy to add a Web page to your list of Favorites. After you have done that, any time you want to open that page, all you have to do is click the Favorites icon on the main Tool Bar. You will then be given a dropdown menu from which you can open one of your favorite pages. After you add a site to your list of Favorites, you can access it at any time from your list with a simple click of your mouse. History - Your trusty Tool Bar offers another feature for retracing your sur.ng steps — the History icon. This icon will offer you the option of revisiting a Web site you have previously visited during your last several Internet sessions. This is a real treat and can save you from having to type long, complicated URLs in the search box. Get to know the icon that represents History. It is a sundial. The History function will let you sort and choose sites to revisit by date, by site, by most visited, by order visited today, and even by search. Glossary of Computer Terms Hardware - Hardware describes the physical parts of a computer system. The main components are the system unit, the monitor (display screen), the keyboard, the mouse and disk drives. The components are illustrated below. Keyboard - The keyboard is used to enter instructions and information into your computer. Following is a description of the function of some keyboard keys. • Backspace key - Use the Backspace key to erase characters (letters, numbers, punctuation etc.) • Control key - This key, labeled with Ctrl is used in conjunction with other keys to cause the computer to perform some action. Back to Table of Contents • Delete key - Delete allows you to erase characters on the right of the insertion point. • Enter key - When you type text, this key acts like a carriage return key on a typewriter or “line down” key to start a new line of text. The Enter key also is used to signal to the computer that you have .nished entering data and want the computer to act on that data. Pressing Enter is like saying “Yes” or “OK” to your computer. • Esc(ape) key - This key, on the upper left corner of the keyboard, is the “When All Else Fails” key. If you have taken some action that you realize was not a correct one, and you don’t see any command on the screen that will let you correct it, try pressing Esc. Often the program will go back to your previous action and give you a chance to correct the mistake. • Numeric keypad - The layout of the area labeled Numeric keypad is similar to an adding machine. It provides a convenient way to enter numeric information without having to use the number keys on the top row of the keyboard. Monitor - display screen. Mouse - The mouse is a pointing device. It is also a selecting device. When you move the mouse around on your mouse pad, you cause a pointer on your monitor to move in the same direction. When the pointer rests on an item on the screen, you can select (highlight) that item by clicking a button on the mouse. Mouse pointer - The mouse pointer takes on different shapes where you position the pointer on the computer screen. Some of the shapes are: • Arrow - is the most common pointer shape and is the standard. The arrow is used to point to or to click on items. • Two-directional arrow - When the pointer crosses any margin or bor­ders of a window it changes to the two-directional arrow. It is used to change the size of a window or an object. • Busy (hourglass) - An hourglass appears when the computer is busy doing something like opening or saving a large document. The com­puter will not respond to any commands while this symbol is present on the screen. • I-bar - When the pointer moves within the area where text can be typed or edited, it appears in the shape of an I-bar. When you click the mouse button, an insertion point appears where you begin to type or edit text. active - Refers to the state of the window that you are using that is currently selected. arrow keys - On your computer keyboard, the keys you use to navigate around your screen. Each key is marked with an arrow and is referred to by the direction in which the arrow points. There is an UP ARROW, DOWN ARROW, LEFT ARROW and RIGHT ARROW key. boot - The process of turning the computer on and getting the operating system running. browser - A program to .nd, read, edit and print information from the World Wide Web.
