Understanding and Responding to Mass Incarceration 2025: Wrongful Conviction, Wrongful Incarceration
Friday, April 11 | 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
Metro State University
The Understanding and Responding to Mass Incarceration (URMI) daylong conference, presented in collaboration with Minnesota Wrongfully Convicted Judicial Reform (MNWCJR), will amplify the voices of those whose lives and communities have been disrupted by wrongful conviction and incarceration.
Topics will include the causes of wrongful conviction, wrongful incarceration as an abuse of human rights, the lived experience of those wrongfully incarcerated and their loved ones, and much more.
Wrongful conviction and incarceration disproportionately affect communities of color, thus bolstering the system of mass incarceration and disenfranchisement. These realities damage the marginalized and the public good, demanding urgent response.
The annual URMI conference, now in its 12th year, is free and open to all. Space is limited and registration is required in advance.
