Brooklyn Defenders is a public defense office whose mission is to provide outstanding representation and advocacy free of cost to people facing loss of freedom, family separation and other serious legal harms by the government.  We are the primary defense provider for parents and caretakers in Brooklyn who are facing ACS investigations. Our multidisciplinary approach offers our clients access to social workers, advocates and civil and immigration attorneys who work to minimize any collateral impact of our clients’ court cases. At the New Lots Library Job & Resource Fair, Brooklyn Defenders staff will share information about how to navigate barriers to employment opportunities after involvement with ACS and the criminal legal system.
