The Barton Juvenile Defender Clinic is seeking student volunteers to participate in “Know Your Rights” workshops for at-risk youth and their families. The workshops will focus primarily on the rights of youth with respect to dealings with the police and the juvenile court process. Interested students will work in conjunction with community organizations, public defenders, and the Georgia Public Defender Standards Council to create user-friendly materials and conduct several workshops in the community. The workshops should begin in late March or early April.
For more information, or to volunteer for this project, please contact Randee Waldman either by e-mail (rwaldm(at)law.emory.edu) or at 404-727-6235.
