Let's Get Loud : Elevating the Voices of Women in the Carceral System
Thursday December 5, 2024 2:00pm - 3:00pm EST

Bring your anecdotes, challenges, and ideas. Incarcerated women are a minority at many of our local jails and are treated like an afterthought. How can we, as defenders, put the spotlight on our female clients' dignity, humanity, and courage and demand that jailers provide appropriate housing, programming, and physical, emotional, and mental care?
