Learn More

In September 2020, Larimer County Criminal Justice Advisory Committee [CJAC] hosted four virtual public meetings for residents to learn more about local criminal justice and community-driven programs.

Community and public officials from a wide array of public service areas closely linked to our criminal justice system participated in the online series, including judges, prosecutors, public defenders, probation, parole, alternative sentencing, community corrections, police, first responders, human services, behavioral health, and juvenile services.

The virtual meetings were recorded and anyone interested in learning more about our local systems can view them on the Larimer County YouTube Channel.
