Justice is more than jails, policing, and prisons. Hello, I'm Illinois Lieutenant Governor Juliana Stratton, and I lead the Justice, Equity, and Opportunity Initiative. Welcome to my podcast series—Walk. Listen. Learn: Our Journey to Justice! Throughout October, I will interview 13 experts who will help us explore key topics relating to justice, equity, and opportunity. Because it's Walk-tober, I will also encourage listeners to turn their wellness journey into a justice journey by (virtually) walking with me every Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday.
