2010 Annual Membership Meeting: The State of Racial Justice for Oregon’s Youth

The ACLU of Oregon invites you to attend our Annual Membership Meeting at the PCC Cascade Campus in North Portland.

Join our panel in exploring the troubling evidence that children of color in Oregon – and particularly African American youth – are disproportionately disciplined in school, leave school early, lack employment opportunities and end up in delinquency or incarcerated at higher rates than their white counterparts.

Featured speaker Marcus Mundy, CEO of the Urban League of Portland, will be joined by Mark McKechnie, Executive Director of the Juvenile Rights Project and Joyce Braden Harris, Director at the Region X Equity Assistance Center of Education Northwest's Equity Program. Together they will present their findings on the current state of inequality for youth of color in Oregon’s education and justice system as well as offering solutions for changing this tragic and dangerous course for Oregon’s youth.

Reception at 3:30 p.m. in Terrell Hall, Room 112
Program begins at 4 p.m. in the Terrell Hall, Room 122
