Wan Qi Kong talks about the Orleans Public Defenders Office, which provides legal counsel to people who can't afford it. Wan Qi also explained her role as a client advocate, which involves helping people reduce recidivism and navigate systems.
Wan Qi Kong discussed the importance of client-centered work in criminal justice reform, and how there are internships, fellowships, and other roles available to help formerly incarcerated people reenter the world.
People in New Orleans face many obstacles to achieving stability, such as limited resources, lack of access to technology, and financial barriers to expunging criminal records.
