Operation Second Chance allows individuals with non-violent misdemeanor warrants to turn themselves in without being jailed, receiving a new court date instead.
Individuals can visit any Santa Clara County law enforcement agency to obtain a citation rather than face arrest, helping to ease the burden on the jail system.
From 2007 to 2017, Operation Second Chance helped over 3,500 people resolve their warrants, demonstrating its effectiveness and community support.
Exclusions apply for felony warrants and those involving violence, but the program aims to assist non-violent offenders seeking court resolution.
