February Recap and Upcoming Events

February 19th- CLE Tribunal Training in Savannah


It was a great turn out as our YPC members Eric Fisher (not pictured), Craig Friedman, and Rachel Platt presented at this successful event. The questions and discussions raised were terrific and motivate us further in this work.

Missed this opportunity, but want CLE student tribunal training?  Your next opportunity will be on March 29th at the State Bar of Georgia. ( More details and register here)


February 27th- Atlanta Community Meeting
 

 
Our community conversations have begun! Community members and law enforcement joined us as we discussed topics such as Use of Force, Community Policing/Relations, and Officer Training.  Thank you to everyone who attended! And if you are looking forward to our next one, it will be in Hiram on April 2.
