Our mission is to bring the general public into contact with members of the legal community in order to increase overall awareness of legal policy, and to facilitate discussion towards the reform of the criminal justice system.

Our next conference, "When Johnny Comes Marching Home and Gets Arrested - From Honor to Dishonor and Back Again", will be held from May 24th to May 26th, with a retreat the day before, at the Christ the King Spiritual Life Center, 575 Burton Road, Greenwich, New York 12834

At In Our Name, we place a strong emphasis on inclusiveness. The symposiums are made available to the general public and to members of the academic, faith, and legal communities. They are also made available to crime victims, to the formerly incarcerated, and to their families. Scholarships are available for anyone who wishes to attend a conference but is unable to pay for the cost of registration, meals and lodging.

It is our hope that you will attend these conferences, visit our website, participate in the In Our Name blog and share your own thoughts and experiences concerning our justice system.
