Intensive Juvenile Defender Training

This course is sponsored by the School of Government, and Co-Sponsored by Office of Indigent Defense Services.

This training is open to public defenders and private attorneys who represent juveniles in delinquency proceedings or attorneys who want to practice in this area. We are thrilled to welcome Kristin Nicole Henning, professor of law at Georgetown Law, Director of the Juvenile Justice Clinic and Initiative, and author of “The Rage of Innocence: How America Criminalizes Black Youth.” Professor Henning will be presenting “Litigating Race: The Fourth Amendment and Beyond.” Other sessions include crafting individualized dispositions, facing the reality of judicial biases, identifying new arguments for cases involving juveniles, disproportionate minority contact, developing your client’s story, cultural competencies, and more. The program will also include one hour of mental health/substance abuse and one hour of ethics CLE.

The registration deadline is 5:00 p.m. on Monday, March 7, 2022.
