international; people with intellectual and developmental disabilities

NCCJD co-created agenda, facilitated and presented at this one-day meeting that took place at The Arc's national convention. The international meeting was convened by Inclusion International and The Arc of the United States' National Center on Criminal Justice and Disability to focus on making justice systems responsive to people with intellectual disabilities. Too often the criminal justice system fails to respond effectively in cases where the victim or the suspect/offender is a person with intellectual disability.
