"I joined the Youth Justice Nav project at Hack for L.A. because it's a cause to empower youth when it comes to the justice system. Black and brown people are disproportionately affected by miscarriage of justice in America. Many of them find it difficult to assert their civil rights, partly because they don't know what they don't know. But this project helps educates youth and their families about their rights under the law, and will help change that."
