In Philadelphia and across the country, a new movement unites public defenders and community advocates at the front end of the justice system. This approach includes participatory defense, a ground-breaking community organizing model for people facing charges, their families, and their communities to achieve more just outcomes in their cases and transform the landscape of the criminal justice system. Dr. Dorothy Johnson-Speight and Chief Defender Keir Bradford-Grey will discuss their innovative partnership to bring participatory defense to Philadelphia.
