ACLU: Criminal Justice Reform Cannot Wait

What: Join the ACLU of Ohio and the Urban League of Greater Cincinnati for a call to change our criminal justice system.

Ohio’s criminal justice system employs policies that increase cost, reduce safety and contribute to racial disparities. Prison officials, judges and community advocates are calling for reform to lessen the number of people sentenced and to support those who leave prison. Come, learn and take action!

This call to action is a part of the ACLU 2010 Freedom Tour, bringing people together in three cities across the state, to highlight the disparities of the criminal justice system.

Who: Terry Collins, former director, Ohio Department of Correction and Rehabilitation
Donna Jones Baker, executive director, Urban League of Greater Cincinnati
Ed Little, Department of Justice Affairs, Office of Re-entryGary Daniels, associate director, ACLU of Ohio, moderator

When: Monday, December 6, 2010
6:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.

Where: Urban League of Greater Cincinnati
3458 Reading Road Cincinnati, OH 45229

The event is free and open to the public. Free parking is available. To RSVP for the event, call (216) 472-2200 or email contact@acluohio.org.
