The Quattrone Center will organize and conduct an online orientation meeting for all Recipients, to be held as soon after the award of BJA funds as practicable. This is anticipated to be a half-day meeting in webinar format, although it could be extended as necessary based on the topics of particular interest to Recipients.
Every month we host an online meeting open to all grantees and subgrantees. We provide the opportunity for grantee organizations to meet and discuss common issues. In addition, we bring in subject matter experts to discuss topics related to investigating and litigating wrongful conviction claims.
