WE are the Franklin County Public Defender Collective, the last and best line of defense for the marginalized people of our community involved with the criminal justice system. We fight every day in and out of court for our clients. What we do is hard, but we do it because our clients are worth it. WE are unionizing because WE are worth it. Today we are asking our community to support us and stand with us as we request voluntary recognition of our union from Director Yeura Venters and the administration of the Franklin County Public Defenders Office.
