Sen. Moore Announces Upcoming Community Conversation Re: Juvenile Delinquency and Intervention

Event to be held on Monday, June 11

BRIDGEPORT— Senator Marilyn Moore (D-Bridgeport) will host “A Discussion on Juvenile Delinquency & Intervention” on Monday, June 11 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Burroughs Community Center, 2470 Fairfield Ave, Bridgeport. The event is free and open to the public.

Sen. Moore has invited Attorney Susan Hamilton, Director of Delinquency Defense & Child Protection in the Public Defender’s Office, and Attorney Christine Rapillo, Chief Public Defender, to participate in the discussion.

“I decided to host this community conversation after hearing from various constituents, including a group of mothers from Bridgeport who have been affected by gun violence, about their concerns regarding youth in our city,” Sen. Moore, chair of the General Assembly’s Children’s Committee, said. “This forum will allow all of us to express our opinions and learn more about what’s currently happening in the juvenile judicial system from attorneys who are working with youth every day. From there, I can move forward with determining policies we should fight for at the state level to address the issues surrounding juvenile delinquency in our community.”
