SUMMARY:Enhancing Representation of People with Disabilities and Deaf People: A Three-Part Webinar Series
DESCRIPTION:A Three-Part Virtual Training: May 21\, 28 and June 5\, 2025 \nPeople with disabilities and Deaf people are arrested and incarcerated at vastly higher rates than people without disabilities. Although psychiatric disabilities (mental illnesses) are often included in discussions about mass incarceration and criminal legal reforms\, other types of disabilities – such as sensory\, cognitive\, and physical disabilities – and Deaf communities have been overlooked. The Criminal Defense Trainers are proud to partner with Activating Change and the Disability Law Center of Massachusetts to announce a three-part virtual training on this Important topic. \nPart 1: May 21 Kaitlin Kall & Kate Pollack of Activating Change will provide context to the mass incarceration of Deaf people and people with disabilities and unapck some of the barriers faced by these communities in interacting with the criminal legal system. \nPart 2: May 28 Kaitlin Kall & Kate Pollack of Activating Change will provide strategies to enhance universal access for clients\, including approaches for communicating about and securing accomodations for people who are Deaf or have disabilities. \nPart 3: June 5 Justin Woolf & Alison Fondo of the Disability Law Center of Massachusetts will discuss MA specific accomodations and the legal framework for making accomodation requests. \n*note each session of this program qualifies for 1.5 CLE on the following CPCS Panels:  CAFL(Trial & Appeals); Criminal Defense Adult (Trial & Appeals); YAD (Trial & Appeals); SDP; SORB; Parole; Medical Parole \nREGISTER HERE
