Advancing Pretrial Policy & Research:
The Center for Effective Public Policy and partners are holding a Participatory Pretrial Training Session to the collective wisdom and evidence-based pretrial reform efforts published in CEPP's Gender Justice Pretrial Toolkit. This initiative was composed in collaboration with USM Opportunity Scholars with input from my currently and formerly incarcerated MCC Sisters Linda Small, Darlene George, and yours truly as CEPP Gender Justice Policy Advisors.
With funding from Apple's Racial and Equity Justice Initiative, we conducted listening sessions with directly impacted women and lent our own experiential expertise to inform a training curriculum for criminal-legal pretrial professionals and community stakeholders that will help foster a more inclusive and just pretrial process for women and gender nonconforming individuals.
If you are interested in radical, revolutionary, and common sense solutions that empower the voices of those with lived experience to improve our social and legal systems, come join us for our Participatory Pretrial Training Session by using the link below to register!
