A new group of elected prosecutors are using the power of their office to work against the traditional harsh punishments and mass incarceration that have become synonymous with the criminal justice system. Join us for a live discussion about the book Change from Within: A New Vision for the 21st Century Prosecutor, in which some of these visionary prosecutors describe their journeys and what they’re doing to reform the system from the inside.
