Working Together

CEDM has worked with District Attorneys, judges, public defenders and executives to bring awareness to implicit bias, but our work goes beyond members of the legal profession. Extending our reach to decision makers in health care, politics, and educational systems, as well as the public, is paramount to undoing the damage that has affected so many in our community.
