Incarceration Justice Meeting

Tue | Nov 12, 7:00pm, St Mark's Baxter Hall

Incarceration Justice Meeting featuring Advancing Real Change (ARC) speaker, Katherine Ashton

Light refreshments will be available. ARC creates a more just world by advancing empathy, dignity, and equity within and beyond the criminal legal system. ARC unearths life histories of people facing extreme sentences so that true, accurate, and detailed information can be shared with judges, juries, and prosecutors who decide their fates. Katherine Ashton will speak about her Investigative work -and- relay the power and importance of sharing individual stories. She has worked on federal and state capital cases, and sentencing modifications for those convicted of crimes as children. Her work in the mitigation arena started during an internship with the University of Texas School of Law. Her degrees include a Master of Science in Social Work (MSSW) and Master of Divinity degree (MDiv).
