Charleston-based South Carolina for Criminal Justice Reform (SC4CJR), is hosting a new virtual series called “Dissecting Police Problems and Solutions.” The group’s mission is to “unveil the injustices that plague each stage of the criminal justice system, educate the public on those injustices, and create effective proposals for legislative reform.”
In the series, leaders in the criminal justice community will discuss the role they can play to identify injustices and create solutions.
