The continuing fight for racial equity and social justice has increased focus on racial inequities in the criminal justice system and prompted discussion about the relationship between criminal justice and addiction treatment.

Has it contributed to trauma and victimization of BIPOC populations with substance use disorders? Join us as we explore the intersection of criminal justice, addiction treatment, and race.
