Since 1934, we have believed that poverty shouldn’t prevent access to justice. Everyone, regardless of income, deserves the highest quality legal counsel.
📢 Exciting news! Two new #juvenilejustice laws, SB 169 and SB 170, are shifting the focus from punishment to rehabilitation for our youth.
These reforms are all about building brighter futures, not prison cells, and equipping young people with the tools they need to thrive. Huge thanks to @JayCostaPA, @SenatorBakerPA, and @GovernorShapiro for their leadership in making these changes a reality.
Full breakdown of what each law entails below! 🌟
