Is the Prison & Police Abolition event going to be virtual?
I ask because although I am a social worker, I’m currently homebound, haven’t worked in over a year, but am still doing what I can to stay up-to-date with my CEUs.
Hi Angelique! Sorry for the late reply 🙂 I wanted to let you know that this will be a virtual event, and you are very welcome to join us online!
Thanks!
