We’re excited to welcome Armin Salek, Executive Director of the Youth Justice Alliance (YJA), as our featured speaker! Armin has been transforming the legal field by supporting first-generation and underrepresented students to pursue legal careers. He’ll share insights on YJA’s groundbreaking programs and discuss how mentorship and innovative low-barrier education are diversifying the legal profession to include other types of legal advocates, like Community Justice Workers.💡
