The Final Cut with LA36! • LA County’s Public Defender’s Department had a much needed makeover. A little art goes a long way! Here’s our story.🎥 • • #la36 #countyofla #lacounty #art #artsandculture #lacountyartsandculture #publicdefender #lacountypublicdefenders
April is Arts Month. We hosted a grand opening & art unveiling of a renovation project that transformed a file storage warehouse into a modern, state-of-the-art office space. The renovated space is now adorned with unique artwork inspired by our work. Thank you @LACountyArts !
It's Reentry Week! Every day, we're architects of #secondchances. As public defenders, we craft reentry plans with care and compassion, paving pathways to redemption & opportunity. We're celebrating #ReentryWeek with pride in our work & dedication to justice.
So many of our clients face these realities. I am proud of that @lapubdef Immigration and Cognitive Disorders Teams fight these challenges every day. Opinion: The immigration system can bend toward justice. One Orange County man’s case shows how latimes.com/opinion/story/…
Yesterday, members of the Independent Defense Counsel Office provided constituents with information on CARE Court at LA City Councilmember John Lee’s @CD12LA Homeless Connect Day event. To learn more about CARE Court, visit lacourt.org/care
Tomorrow (Saturday, April 20) join @lacountyparks for Earth Day! 🌎 Celebrate by participating in a film screening, volunteering to restore storm-damaged hiking trails, and much more!
Thank you for the warm welcome and desire to connect to help our community. I look forward to our work together.

Today, I had the honor of meeting with Carlos González Gtez, the new Consul General of Mexico in LA @carlos_glezgtez . We shared the importance of indigent defense for one of LA's most disproportionately affected communities & key ways to collaborate on their behalf.
PDPP has saved the state tens of millions of taxpayer dollars. Discontinuing support now will undermine the progress made & and diminish its potential for future positive impacts. People deserve & need opportunity for change & redemption. PDPP makes it possible. @lapubdef

LA County Public Defender, Ricardo D. García has issued the following statement on the Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall Video:
Every person deserves the chance to rewrite their story. As we celebrate #SecondChanceMonth, our office will host a series of expungement clinics across the county. We continue to advocate for policy change for reentry after incarceration & build communities of opportunity.
DID YOU KNOW? WE'RE HIRING! ⚖ There are several opportunities to join the PD Team. Learn more from Supervisor @kathrynbarger! Visit the link in our bio to apply.

In partnership with @CityAttorneyLA, @LASuperiorCourt and @APD_LOSANGELES, we are deploying more resources to assist people experiencing homelessness and resolving legal matters to break the cycle of criminalizing homelessness. This is historic progress that leads with services.

We're making history with the Community Outreach Court! This partnership with @MayorOfLA, @CityAttorneyLA, @LASuperiorCourt & @apd_los_angeles aims to assist individuals at risk of becoming or experiencing homelessness in resolving various legal matters. Read more below⬇️

"For the conviction of the accused every weapon is provided and used, even those poisoned by wrong and injustice. But what machinery is provided for the defense of the innocent? None, absolutely none." -Clara Shortridge Foltz
For #WomensHistoryMonth2024 we’re recognizing the invaluable contributions of Clara Shortridge Foltz to the legal community. Foltz was a champion of many firsts and was instrumental in the establishment of the first public defender office in the country – us!
Excited that @lapubdef Expungement will be onboard helping Veterans and any others.
