Over the past year, the Pretrial Fairness Act has reshaped the landscape of pretrial detention, shifting the focus toward fairness and reducing unnecessary pretrial incarceration. Join League of Women Voters for a pivotal event commemorating the one-year anniversary of the Pretrial Fairness Act. This groundbreaking piece of legislation designed to reform pretrial detention practices but also promote a more equitable justice system for survivors of gender based violence. This milestone offers an important opportunity to reflect on the act's impact, especially within the anti-gender-based violence (GBV) community.

As we discuss this anniversary, we will explore how the law has influenced efforts to combat gender-based violence, examining both its successes and the challenges that remain. Hear from legal experts and advocates on how the Pretrial Fairness Act has affected survivors of gender based violences from legal practices to other advocacy efforts.
