When U.S. Air Force veteran and Detroit native Gaylord Jones found himself unable to renew his driver’s license because of unpaid fines and even discovered the state had mistakenly listed him as deceased, he turned to Volunteers of America Michigan and its legal advocacy partner, Street Democracy, for help.
