End Money Bond Teach-In
March 14, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Every year 250,000 people in Illinois are kept in jail before their trials simply because they are poor. As a result, they are at risk of losing their jobs, housing, education, and family. WE NEED TO END MONEY BOND. Come, learn about Money Bond and Pretrial Detention and find out how we can stop this unjust practice in Illinois.
On Saturday, March 14, Kimball Avenue UCC and San Lucas UCC, in collaboration with the Coalition to End Money Bond, will present a community Teach-In at San Lucas UCC, 2914 W. North Ave. in Chicago. The 2-hour event will begin at 10:00 am. In addition to learning about Money Bond and understanding its impact on individuals, families and communities, participants will be given tools to help end Money Bond in the state of Illinois.
