New Jersey Community and Corrections Working Summit 2003

In 2003, 20 years ago, Black & Latino Leaders (specifically, the Hispanic Directors Association of NJ & the NJ Black Issues Convention) brought together leadership from the NJ Department of Corrections, Office of the Corrections Ombudsman, NJ State Parole Board, The Office of the Attorney General, the Juvenile Justice Commission, the NJ State Police, and numerous others from the state-wide Criminal Justice System.

 

The intent was to convene the NJ Community & Corrections Working Summit, Impacting Communities of Color.  The focus was to map an action agenda that would impact future statewide Criminal Justice Reforms. This event sparked an ongoing movement that works tirelessly to address the adult mass incarceration of people of color in New Jersey.
