Too often, cities like Buffalo look to fund government functions by relying on revenue generated from criminal justice debt, a burden that disproportionally impacts the poor and poor people of color. The dependency of government agencies, the courts, and the police departments on revenue from criminal justice debt have long-lasting negative effects on communities & the people they are supposed to serve.

Please come and join the Western New York Law Center as they bring awareness to the issue of criminal justice debt and its effects on poor communities and communities of color. The event will also explore solutions to combat and eliminate criminal justice debt.
