TPW-NY Presents: Collaborate for Justice!
In response to the critical needs identified through community surveys, collaborative brainstorming sessions, and strategic planning meetings, we are thrilled to introduce Collaborate for Justice. This initiative, born from the collective wisdom of a brilliant planning committee and facilitators, aims to address pressing issues in criminal justice reform. Through problem-solving and actionable outcomes, we're fostering a collective effort to focus on tangible solutions. Join us as we come together to make a meaningful impact.
