344 | When Public Defenders Support Community Organizing, Community will Organize to Support Public Defense w/Heather Lewis

Public Defenseless · Apr 8, 2025 · 1h 7m

Today, Hunter sat down with Heather Lewis a participatory defense organizer and the Executive Director of the Reuniting Family Bail Fund. Unlike many places where participatory defense hubs have been set up, Montgomery County Public Defenders welcomed participatory defense with open arms. Today, we will see the benefit of having an activated community when policy makers retaliate against public defenders.
