A group of PD10 attorneys and staff joined public defenders' offices from across Florida at the annual FPDA Summer Conference last month. This year’s programming focused on mental health, with sessions designed to strengthen the skills and knowledge we bring to our work every day. We were especially proud to have our First Assistant Public Defender, Jayde Coleman Stephens, present on competency issues, evaluations, and litigation. We’re always excited to learn alongside our colleagues and bring new knowledge back to our office and the clients we serve.

Earlier this month, we welcomed another group of justice-minded high school juniors, seniors, and recent graduates for an inside look at advocacy and the criminal justice system. Throughout the week, students observed court proceedings, toured local justice system facilities, and participated in hands-on learning experiences, including a CSI presentation.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this session of the Justice & Advocacy Academy a success. We hope this experience inspired the next generation of advocates, leaders, and public servants.
