SUMMARY:Punishing Poverty: The High Cost of Fines\, Fees & Restitution and Their Impact on the Poor
DESCRIPTION:This virtual conversation will look into today’s unfair and biased trend of criminalizing poor people impacted by the criminal legal system\, discuss the practice of a system that does not consider an individual’s economic status and ability to pay\, and assess how a trend has led to today’s modern debtors’ prisons\, how these financial burdens keep justice-involved people in poverty and increase their likelihood of returning to the system and will discuss solutions on how to fix a system that has profited far too long off the poverty of poor people. \n\n\n\nModerator\n\n\n\nWaleisah WilsonClient Services AdvocateSouthern Center for Human Rights \n\n\n\nPanelists\n\n\n\nTiffany Williams RobertsPublic Policy DirectorSouthern Center for Human Rights \n\n\n\nBill PaulExecutive DirectorRestore Georgia \n\n\n\nRay KhalfaniPolicy Analyst\, Worker Justice & Criminal Legal SystemsGeorgia Budget and Policy Institute
