On October 6 & 7, 2008, at the Double Tree Sonoma Wine Country, in Rohnert Park, California, “Centerforce Inside/Out” summit will once again happen. Last year’s event was sold out and covered many aspects of the difficulties that face California and the rest of the country in developing a more comprehensive method of crime prevention and fair and just treatment of prisoners.
This year’s summit will do much the same, providing education, insight, inspiration and a proactive focus network. For two days more than 400 people are expected to gather to confront the incarceration crisis and engage in an energetic forum on discovering solutions for the impact of incarceration on individuals, families, and communities.
Sessions at this year’s summit will include: Sentencing Reform, Incarceration Medicine, and 15 workshops falling into four main topics: “Going In,” “Being In,” “Getting Out,” and “Staying Out.” Speakers are yet to be determined.
