Virtual Conference on LASD Jails, Transition Out of Jail May 31

Join the virtual conference to learn about incarcerated people’s transition out of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department or LASD jails. Once someone has served their time, the case is dropped, or bail has posted, they are released from the jail. But, then what? These panelists will discuss efforts to ensure that people who are exiting jail are provided with warm handoffs to connect them to services they need.

This session will focus on transitional services for reintroduction into the community, including connections to services for housing, food, health coverage, transportation and job training and opportunities.

Time: 12 to 2 p.m., May 31
