Access to Justice
The program provides legal education to communities, empowering them to exercise their constitutional rights and responsibilities responsibly. It aims to ensure justice, accountability, and effective remedies for all individuals by demanding it at all levels.
Additionally, the program advocates for criminal justice reforms through policy work, supports the exoneration of wrongly convicted individuals, and helps reformed returning citizens to reintegrate into society after their release.
