On May 13, 2022, the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, in collaboration with the Data Collaborative for Justice, hosted a public conference on New York State`s bail and pre-trial laws, policies and practices.
This conference served as a forum on where we have been, where we are and where to go from here, including a variety of perspectives through presentations, panels and interactive roundtables. We were fortunate to have speakers who presented facts and data about bail reform and its impact in New York (as well as useful background information from across the country) and respectfully represented different groups and concerns. Ultimately, this conference served as a platform where all stakeholders in bail reform, from the public to those in the implementing system, can review the facts of this important policy reform, identify gaps in relevant laws and practices, and assess opportunities to improve bail reform. Building on a commitment to place children at the heart of child protection law and practice, My Life, My Culture – Our Future will explore how practitioners can best guide children and their families through the child protection system while addressing their psychological, emotional, health and social.
