Justice Day 2020: Focused on the Future
About this event
On February 27, several partners of the Justice Reform Partnership will come together to host Justice Day 2020: Focused on the Future, the ninth
Justice Day will bring together a wide array of community members and organizations to show Georgia lawmakers that there is still a need for criminal justice reform and meaningful changes to promote healthy and safe communities.
This year we will focus on opportunity, dignity and redemption in the state's criminal legal system and ways the laws can be improved. The program will feature leaders in the criminal justice reform movement. Individuals directly impacted by the justice system and their families will speak about their experiences and lead the lobbying efforts in the Capitol, highlighting the issues being considered in the 2020 legislative session.
Photo ID Required: Government-issued photo identification will be required to enter the state buildings.
Free transportation: For the first time we will be providing free transportation to and from Albany, Athens, Columbus, Macon and Savannah to Justice Day 2020. Space is limited so please reserve your bus seat today!
