Over the past three years, locally embedded community organizations have participated in the Catalyst Grant Program, a collaboration between the Urban Institute and the Microsoft Justice Reform Initiative, to carry out projects using data and technology to advance racial equity in the front end of the criminal legal system.

In this webinar, two past grantees from the Defender Association of Philadelphia and the San Francisco Bay Area Planning and Urban Research Association (SPUR) will present work they did with Catalyst funding that leveraged legislative requirements for police departments and pushed for reforms in traffic enforcement policy and practice.

Speakers:
- Jacob Denney, Vera California (formerly SPUR)
- Michael Mellon, Defender Association of Philadelphia
- Susan Nembhard, Urban Institute
- Marie Pryor, Microsoft Justice Reform Initiative
- Lily Robin, Urban Institute
- Paula Sen, Defender Association of Philadelphia
