Heading to a public defender's office this summer or post-grad? Don’t miss this practical training offered by Tori Anderson ‘16, Senior Program Manager at Partners For Justice, who will give incoming public defenders a framework for understanding, implementing, and receiving support for their personal collaborative defense practice. Tori will walk through what it means to practice public defense collaboratively. She will talk about the Collaborative Defense framework -- which is a framework for client-led representation that confronts the underlying causes and prevents many of the most dire consequences of criminal legal involvement. She will teach future public defenders what collaborative defense means in practice, talk about PFJ's work and how it impacts offices we currently partner with, discuss how a public defender can implement collaborative defense practices in offices we do not currently partner with, and offer PFJ resources to help support them going forward. The resources offered at the end will include access to PFJ's resource guides (jurisdiction specific list of local service providers), support in building their own resource guides, and a public defense and cohort networking of collaborative public defenders. Lunch provided. Please RSVP.
