In our conversation, Sabreena talks about why this is a crucial time to advocate for major overhauls to key components of the justice system. Advocates must seize this opportunity to call for justice policies that are responsive to the public's lived experience and to press for investment in justice reform. Yet, as she writes in her contribution to the series, the majority of mainstream efforts aiming to improve access to justice across Canada are stagnating because the organizations behind them suffer from an entrenched diversity problem.
