Town Hall Meeting- The New Illinois Criminal Justice Reform Law: Facts vs. Fiction


Town Hall Meeting-
The New Illinois Criminal Justice Reform Law: Facts vs. Fiction

Thursday, April 29
7:00 PM

The new criminal justice reform law includes significant possible changes but may not cover the scope of needed accountability. Our expert panel will sift through this complex law, so that we all better understand the gains we’ve made and areas that still require advocacy. Q & A will follow.
