The Pew Charitable Trusts’ Philadelphia Research Initiative invites you to join us for “Behind the Rise and Fall of Philadelphia’s Prison Population,” a panel discussion on the findings of our upcoming study.
We will explore why the city’s jail population rose for most of the decade and fell in the past year, what is being done to manage the population more systematically, and what the experiences of other cities have been.
Join Philadelphia Mayor Michael A. Nutter, Pew president and CEO Rebecca W. Rimel and 6ABC Action News anchor Tamala Edwards for an engaging conversation featuring:
• District Attorney R. Seth Williams
• Deputy Mayor for Public Safety Everett A. Gillison
• Reverend Dr. Ernest McNear, chairman of the Kingdom Care Reentry Network
• Michael P. Jacobson, director and president of the Vera Institute of Justice in New York
