Our 2021 programming theme is The Work Left to Do, and within that theme, we’ll explore a different focus each month. For the month of July, our programming will focus on the work of the justice system and the courts.
Our July 8th Tea guest is Sherene Crawford, Associate Director, Criminal Justice, at the Center for Court Innovation, an organization that "works to achieve justice and equity; create safe, healthy, and thriving communities; and ultimately transform justice systems." The Center for Court Innovation does this through research, creative thinking around justice systems and practices, and policy guidance and implementation.
Kristan and Sherene will discuss the work of the Center for Court Innovation to reform the justice systems and make justice more accessible and equitable to all, including the project at Midtown Community Court, one of the country's first problem solving courts that seeks to reduce crime and incarceration and increasing public trust in justice.

The Robert H. Jackson Center is a non-profit, non-partisan educational organization that is dedicated to presenting accurate and balanced information about complex issues. The opinions expressed by various guest speakers, panelists, and authors do not necessarily reflect the views of the Center, its Board, and supporters.
The Center fulfills its educational mission by welcoming diverse views and by providing a forum to explore a wide range of perspectives on often controversial legal and public policy issues. While we make an effort to ensure the information we provide is accurate and balanced, we welcome your comments, suggestions, or correction of any factual errors.
Since 2001, the Robert H. Jackson Center has preserved the values embodied in the life and works of Robert H. Jackson, who served as U.S. Solicitor General, U.S. Attorney General, U.S. Supreme Court Justice, and Chief U.S. Prosecutor of the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg. Through programs, presentations, exhibits, media, internships, and scholarship, the Center seeks to demonstrate to current and future generations the relevance and applicability of Justice Jackson’s ideas and writings. The Center provides educational content on the United States Constitution and Supreme Court, civil rights, the legacy of the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg and international human rights, and the rule of law. During his illustrious career, Justice Jackson addressed these subjects, and the Center recognizes his thinking remains relevant today.
