8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., S.J. Quinney College of Law, Level 6
The S.J. Quinney College of Law will be hosting the 3rd Annual “Breaking the Pipeline Symposium” on Saturday, March 31st, 2018. This event will bring together public school teachers and administrators, social workers, juvenile justice practitioners, legal practitioners, lawmakers, and University of Utah students to learn about the over-criminalization of youth in public schools, leading to what is commonly known as the School to Prison Pipeline. In particular, this symposium will educate attendees on the School to Prison Pipeline by tracking how students are initially referred to the juvenile justice system, and what happens to students once they are in the juvenile justice system. Presenters will analyze the roles that teachers, administrators, school police officers, social workers, legal practitioners, and the recently-enacted HB239 Juvenile Justice Amendments play in this system.
