July 30
5:30pm Dinner, 6-8pm Training
Fairness Office, 2263 Frankfort Ave.
Let's explore the roots of our injustice system and how we can grow a base of support for alternatives to incarceration. Louisville is considering spending $500,000,000 (possibly more) on a new jail when we already have one. What are the alternatives and what could that money be used for instead? Join us to build your skill set and strategize as we organize for alternatives to incarceration. Register here.
