Free registration: Email and put “criminal justice webinar” in subject line.
Inspired by our commitment to racial justice, the Church of the Holy Spirit on Vashon Island (Episcopal) is sponsoring a webinar on criminal justice reform. Webinar speakers will explain three top-priority bills before the 2024 state legislature to help undo the racial, social, and spiritual harms of Washington state’s criminal justice system. Passage of these reform bills will be incremental steps toward a criminal justice system emphasizing rehabilitation and hope rather than excessive punishment.
Webinar speakers are:
Moderator: Cindy Arends Elsberry, Resentencing Resource Attorney for the Washington Defender Association,
Traffic Stops: Enoka Herat, ACLU attorney
Limiting Solitary Confinement: Rachael Seevers, staff attorney for Disability Rights Washington
Reining in Sentencing Add-On: David Trieweiler, criminal defense lawyer and chair of End Mass Incarceration Project
Sponsored by Church of the Holy Spirit (Episcopal) on Vashon Island, Washington
