AFC & EdLaw Panel on the School-to-Prison Pipeline
03.13.2014 | On March 12, AFC's Junior Board and NYU Law School's Education Law and Policy Society held a panel on deconstructing the school-to-prison pipeline to keep kids in NYC schools. The panel was moderated by AFC Skadden Fellow Nick Sheehan. More than 110 attendees learned about several models for positive discipline and heard NYC student Kevin Rivera give a moving account of his personal experience with suspension and restorative justice.
