“We the Defenders” is the essential conference for public defense investigators, mitigation specialists, social workers, paralegals, and other core staff - all roles except attorneys – who play a critical role in defense-based work. Development opportunities, networking, collaboration, and sustainability are woven into the various workshops, small groups, plenaries, and sessions at We the Defenders.
