Interview with Vera Insitute

This episode I got the chance to speak with Sara Minion from Vera Institute of Justice and Sam Benavides from Mano Amiga speak on all things criminal justice. Sam in Texas explains to us what a holistic public defender's office is and what that means for folks pre-trial and much, much more. 

Vera is powered by hundreds of researchers and advocates working to transform the criminal legal and immigration systems until they’re fair for all. Please check out the information below about both organizations

Mano Amiga -Our organization was created in the spring of 2017 in the wake of immigration raids in Austin stemming from Senate Bill 4. Since the beginning, our focus has been expanded to include sharing the stories and experiences of people who are directly impacted by our criminal justice system.
