Hear what people are saying about our Criminal Justice Symposium:

“The importance of thinking outside the box was both insightful and thought provoking.” Byron Kline, Assistant Director, NYS Reentry Division of Criminal Justice Services “

The symposium was terrific! It’s forcing me to view ‘re-entry’ from a number of new and different perspectives.”

John Chaney, Deputy Executive Director, ComAlert - Brooklyn DA’s Office.
