Our next Lunch & Learn Volunteer Training tackles a topic every juvenile defender needs to understand: the critical differences between the juvenile justice system and the adult criminal justice system, and what brain development has to do with it all.
Join us June 9 from 12 to 1 p.m. via Zoom for "Common Misconceptions about Juvenile Justice. What's the brain got to do with it?"
