At the workshop, we will discuss how to be an advocate for social justice, with a focus on reforming our broken criminal legal system. Presenters will explain the state legislative process and how to engage with the interim committees this summer. The group will talk about how they'd like to show up and share ideas for advocacy.

Food will be served! Event is free and open to the public. We hope to see you there!
