Racial Justice Conference

Race affects every stage of the criminal legal system – and every Public Defender’s work. Whether you are new to public defense or have decades of experience, whether you are a person of color or not, and regardless of your role within an office, this conference offers an opportunity to learn, reflect, and strengthen your advocacy on behalf of clients and communities. See the registration form for conference highlights.
