Join this discussion on how people with justice system involvement are mobilizing to make their voices heard through the civic engagement processes.
This webinar will discuss how academics and advocates are using data and research to advance voting rights campaigns. We will look at what the data shows as effective ways to engage justice-impacted communities and emerging areas of research.
We will also explore how involvement in research campaigns is bolstering community organizing and advocacy efforts to build power and expand the franchise.
