Background:
The Wren Collective supports the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office (HCAO) communication of complex criminal justice information to the public in an understandable and digestible manner. This is critical to HCAO’s goal of actively engaging and partnering with Hennepin County communities in a way that is accessible, transparent and accountable. HCAO’s legal work is incredibly broad and complex and at a time of broad public misinformation campaigns, it is critical that HCAO fosters community understanding of what we do and how we do it.
