The Prosecutor’s Caucus is an informal community of LGBTQ+ prosecutors. It provides an opportunity to network and discuss LGBTQ+ issues in the criminal justice system. This year’s caucus will discuss alternatives to prosecution programs (including restorative justice), diversion programs, working with community organizations to reduce the cycle of criminality while addressing past traumas, addressing and acknowledging the needs of trans women of color who are adversely and disproportionately affected by violence, and the responsibility of the LGBTQ+ prosecutor in educating fellow law enforcement colleagues about LGBTQ+ victims, witnesses, and defendants.
