The Defender Association teamed up with leaders and volunteers from Philadelphia’s participatory defense hubs to tell the story of this community-based model transforming the criminal justice system.
Learn more about participatory defense and find a hub near you.
Since 1934, we have believed that poverty shouldn’t prevent access to justice. Everyone, regardless of income, deserves the highest quality legal counsel.
