SUMMARY:Seattle FOR program on Criminal Justice System\, Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Sun Feb 20\, 6:30 -8 pm\, Seattle Fellowship of Reconciliation Zoom program with Tom Ewell on Bringing Justice to the Criminal Justice System. \nThe majority of Tom’s professional career included twenty years as executive director of the Maine Council of Churches before he retired to Washington in 2006. Tom considers himself a “public Quaker\,” meaning he combines his commitment to Quaker faith and practice with his leadership in civic engagement and advocacy around peace and justice issues.\n\nOne of his primary areas of interest over the past thirty years has been criminal justice reform\, and he has continued to advocate for various prison legislation in Washington through his leadership with the Quaker Voice lobby organization and various other coalitions. For ten years he was deeply committed to legislation that would establish an independent prison ombuds program to provide public oversight of the Dept. of Corrections\, and the bill was passed and implemented successfully in 2018. This past year he was part of a coalition that passed legislation to allow the formerly incarcerated the right to vote in Washington\, and he is continuing to plan for passage of legislation that would permit voting for those who are still currently incarcerated.. Currently his primary advocacy if to restrict the use of solitary confinement. His larger goal in the corrections field is to normalize restorative justice as an alternative to the current retributive (punishment based) system.\n\nTom lives on Whidbey Island with his wife\, author Cathy Whitmire. He writes a weekly blog\, his “Saturday Evening Post\,” that can be accessed and subscribed to at his website\, www.tomewellconnections.org.\nEveryone welcome – we hope to see you there. \ninfo\, or contact 206-789-5565 or wwfor@wwfor.org or https://wwfor.org/calendar/ \nZOOM INFO \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/87371368515?pwd=TlVnWllkVExuOFE2elFEaWdOdUVqUT09 \nMeeting ID: 873 7136 8515\nPasscode: 942201\nOne tap mobile\n+12532158782\,\,87371368515#\,\,\,\,*942201# US (Tacoma)\n+16699009128\,\,87371368515#\,\,\,\,*942201# US (San Jose) \nDial by your location\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 669 900 9128 US (San Jose)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 558 8656 US (New York)\nMeeting ID: 873 7136 8515\nPasscode: 942201\nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kcUq3njY7S
