The Massachusetts Bail Fund Forum
at Stone Soup
4 King Street
Worcester, MA 01610

The Massachusetts Bail Fund is a project of CJPC. Research suggests that people who are held during the pretrial period are more likely to be convicted and receive harsher sentences than those who are released on bail. The Massachusetts Bail Fund helps low income and poor residents to meet bail, so that they have a better chance of getting a fairer sentence if convicted. The forum will be an opportunity to learn what the Bail Fund has done thus far and what still needs to be done. Join us in a conversation.
