Please join us for a panel discussion on police use of force in healthcare facilities. As a case study of policing in hospitals, the UCLA Law Research for Change research team has analyzed use of force records from Veterans Affairs facilities in Los Angeles, Tampa, and Columbus. This analysis provides insight into when, why, and how police use force against veterans and other marginalized patient groups, and the impact of policing in veterans' healthcare. Speakers will include practitioners, scholars, and the UCLA Law Research for Change Fellows. This project is part of the UCLA Criminal Justice Program's 2024–2025 Research for Change Initiative generously supported by The Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Foundation.

The event will take place on April 7th from 12:15-1:30 in Room 1447 of the UCLA School of Law. The event is co-sponsored by the Criminal Justice Program, the Critical Race Studies program, the Disability Law Journal, the Health Law and Policy Program, the Public Interest Law and Policy Program, and the Veterans Legal Clinic.

Please RSVP by March 31st for lunch.
