REGISTER

Speakers: Bart Bailey and Karen Fleshman, Esq.
Date: May 21, 2021, 1-3pm

Now that we have some background, information and understanding about the issues influencing race, justice and equity within society, this presentation encourages the growth, vulnerability and development of participants, organizations and communities by removing barriers to thought and communication. The presenters will help to create a safe space for authentic conversations by providing a trustful and respectful foundational platform generating participation in transformative training, addressing white fragility for public defenders, witnesses, jurors, judges and other stakeholders. The training will not only provide tools which allow participants to engage in internal transformation, but will also help participants understand how to influence this transformation in the thoughts and communications of finders of fact and stakeholders across practice areas.
