This rope team seeks to create a space for all community members interested in criminal justice, from any perspective, to engage in civic dialogue, to access connections, opportunities, resources, and experiences relevant to student/alum learning, development, and success, and to share their voice and gain knowledge on different criminal justice views and opportunities to contribute and engage. This community is designed to nurture important criminal justice discourse meaningful to all members of society and the pursuit of their civic duties. We call them “rope teams” because these communities, as many as you are interested in accessing, are here to support your journey as well as to provide you with an opportunity to support the journey of those you want to help succeed.
