DESCRIPTION:SCCCCOR, the Barrios Unidos Juvenile Hall Outreach Program, Watsonville 
 Vice Mayor Karina Cervantez and  ACLU Santa Cruz are joining together to 
 host events addressing the issue of “Direct File”, which allows 
 juveniles to be tried in adult court and sentenced to adult prison. 
 \n\nEach event will feature the screening of the documentary film 
 “Juvies” which is a video created by several young people while they 
 were incarcerated in the Los Angeles County Juvenile Hall and who are all 
 being tried as adults. A Santa Cruz Family Support Group Meeting will 
 follow each screening. These meetings will give our audience an opportunity 
 to examine how Direct File laws affect families. We will also discuss 
 “gang enhanced” sentencing, the criteria used by the courts to label a 
 young person as a “gang member”, how this feeds into the 
 school-to-prison pipeline and questioning whether we are we actually 
 criminalizing culture.\n \nThe first showing and group meeting will be held 
 on Sunday, July 14th from 5 to 7pm at the Resource Center for Nonviolence 
 located at 612 Ocean Street in Santa Cruz. The second showing will be on 
 Wednesday, July 17th from 6:30-8:30 pm at the Teacher's Union Office 
 located at 734 East Lake Avenue Suite 14 (upstairs) in Watsonville. 
 \n\nDinner will be served at both events and Spanish translation and 
 childcare will be provided. So please join us for an evening of shared 
 information, discussion and community support.\n\nFor more information, 
 contact Jenn by phone at 202-802-7626 or by email at
