Know Your Rights Pro Bono Project Interest Meeting
Date: | Thursday, September 15, 2016 |
Time: | 12:00 - 1:00 PM |
Description: | The goal for Know Your Rights is to meet with and educate local communities considered "at-risk "about the state and federal laws involved in routine interactions with law enforcement officers, including differences between a stop, a conversation, detention, and arrest, in order to decrease the proliferation of non-violent and preventable arrests, which can lead to devastating long-term effects and irreparable harm to one's personal, educational and professional reputation. A small group of presenters facilitate conversations around the substantive laws involved, the applicable constitutional rights in these different scenarios, and how to apply them; and what the protocol is when dealing with the police officers. Attendees receive on pro bono hour. Please bring a brown-bag lunch. |
