When did the Way to Justice Start and Why?
The Way to Justice was founded in 2020 by Virla Spencer and Camerina Zorrozua, BIPOC women with over three decades of experience working in the justice system. We understand that change will not happen overnight, so our work is focused on navigating systems as they are, to find The Way to Justice.
Who does the Way to Justice Serve?
Our clients and their loved ones have been unjustly impacted by our legal system. Too often, access to justice is denied due to poverty and structural bias. In our work, we focus on addressing systemic racism, removing barriers, empowering the most vulnerable, and amplifying the voices of the impacted community to create a more just system.
What programs does the Way to Justice Offer?
