Description

This spotlight session will explore strategies to detangle the many intersections of criminal legal system involvement and homelessness. Presenters will discuss the disparate treatment of people of color and those with disabilities within the criminal legal system, as these inequities can exacerbate risk of homelessness. This session will engage audience members in an exploration of needed policy reforms and programs to prevent and end homelessness for those with criminal legal system touchpoints, and the need for greater criminal legal system reform to advance social justice.
