on Georgia’s Criminal and Juvenile Justice Reform Measures

The public is invited to join Florida policymakers in learning how Georgia turned a formidable and politically-charged challenge posed by Gov. Nathan Deal into the state’s proud, non-partisan opportunity to re-engineer its criminal and juvenile justice systems to advance public safety, save money and save lives.
