Welcome to Humans on the Registry. We hope you find these snapshots of registrants’ lives insightful and even inspirational. All of our contributors have been convicted of some form of a registerable sexual offense. These offenses can range from youthful sexual activity to very serious convictions. Our storytellers have accepted responsibility for any past harm. They wish to reflect not only on the impact of being on the registry, but on what brings them happiness now: their accomplishments as well as their hopes and dreams. We’ve chosen to focus on each individual as they are now; not as who they were in the past or what they were punished for. They all have unique stories to share with you as humans who’ve been registered. We hope you will share their stories with others who might benefit from their journey and vision for the future.
