Rikers Island: Reform It—Or Shut It Down?

Join us for a discussion about what jail reform can and should look like: How can the city move toward a better, smaller jail? What are the right alternatives for adolescents and mentally ill inmates? What community-based supports must be in place to reduce incarceration and recidivism? What are the barriers to real reform and how can they be overcome?

This event is co-sponsored by JustLeadershipUSA and the Humanities Action Lab at The New School.

Free admission.
