Description:

Join the National Juvenile Defender Center as they welcome author and activist Jim St. Germain for a discussion and signing of his new memoir, A Stone of Hope. 

His powerful new memoir calls for dedicated advocates to uplift youth strength and potential -- especially youth caught in the juvenile and criminal court systems. 

The conversation will focus on St. Germain’s personal story and how it reflects larger themes of race, justice reform, and the importance of ensuring every young person has a champion who believes in them. 

A book signing will follow the event.
