Foothills Congregational Church has scheduled “A Forum on Justice Issues: The Courts” 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sunday at the church, 461 Orange Ave., Los Altos.
The first in a series of forums on issues of justice in the region will focus on the Santa Clara County courts and jail system.
The Hon. Shelyna V. Brown will discuss the pioneering efforts of the county in local reforms. Brown has been on the bench for six years and previously practiced as a public defender for Santa Clara County. She will address topics such as understanding the court system, bail reform, delayed justice and improving educational opportunities to assist inmates in gaining a better life after incarceration.
In keeping with the traditions of Foothills Congregational Church, the forum will include open discussion on topics that lead to improvements in social circumstances for all.
