Celebrating diversity in public defense and why it matters. 🌎
Effective advocacy begins with understanding. Our Heritage Event gave staff the opportunity to learn from one another, celebrate different cultures, and share food, stories, and traditions that reflect the communities we serve.
Diversity strengthens public defense because every person deserves an advocate who recognizes the importance of their experiences, identity, and voice.
