The Impact of the ADA on Police Accountability in Prisons

Learn How the ADA is Being Used in the Fight for Greater Accountability for Police Misconduct in California Prisons

(Rebroadcast)

Speakers

Penny Godbold Rosen Bien Galvan & Grunfeld	Benjamin Bien-Kahn Rosen Bien Galvan & Grunfeld

We will discuss the challenges that people with disabilities face in California prisons. Having to rely on prison guards for basic disability accommodation needs opens them up to greater conflicts with staff. We will learn how the ADA was successfully used by class action counsel to bring about changes inside California prisons to improve oversight and accountability including, most notably, the first court-ordered use of body-worn cameras in prison. We will discuss where California stands now, two years after implementing changes, and we will discuss challenges that lie ahead in enforcing existing orders.

Topics

• Rights of People in Prison with Disabilities
• Use of the ADA to Ensure Accountability for Staff Misconduct
• The Use of Body-Worn Cameras in Prisons
• Challenges for Police Accountability in Prisons
