We could be using that $3.5 million to educate and support young people. Instead sheriffs are spending those resources to incarcerate young people. That’s why we’re hosting a webinar on ‘Demand 2: Towards Freedom’ of our 7 Demands to Reimagine the Sheriff on Wed 10/22 at 12pm safetybound.org/demands
