A LOCAL ORGANIZATION HOSTING A
COMMUNITY CONVERSATION ABOUT THE
JUSTICE SYSTEM.
THE ARKANSAS JUSTICE REFORM
COALITION HOSTED THE EVENT AT
ST. PAUL'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH IN
FAYETTEVILLE.
IT GAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO
DISCUSS HOW THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SYSTEM WORKS FROM FINES AND FEES
TO INCARCERATION.
SOMEONE WHO ATTENDED SAYS
THERE'S A LOT OF FEAR FOR PEOPLE
WHO DON'T KNOW THEIR RIGHTS.
 
 
 
 
"people don't know what to do
when they're pulled over by
police. They don't know what to
do when somebody is arrested and
now is in the county jail.
So, there's a real opportunity
for us to
engage in a dialog to create
more
transparency."
ARKANSAS JUSTICE REFORM
COALITION
HOPES TO HAVE MORE MEETINGS LIKE
THIS TO CONTINUE EDUCATING OUR
COMMUNIT
