01/14/2022 - 44 Women Education Luncheon
Thursday, February 24, 2022
Balboa Bay Resort
Reimagining Justice for Youth
Join the 44 Women for Orangewood at this luncheon to learn and be inspired by the important work being led by The Honorable Judge Maria Hernandez in the innovative new Young Adult Court. Systemic inequities can create lifelong barriers for young men who make mistakes- like stealing a bike- resulting in felony convictions. Judge Hernandez believes there is a different path forward for these young men- a path where they are able to find housing, become employed, start families of their own, and become truly integrated contributing members of our community.
If you have questions about the event, please contact info@orangewoodfoundation.org.
