Description:
The COVID-19 pandemic presents special risks for people living in communal
environments, including houses of correction, prisons, and immigration detention
facilities.
During this program, you will hear from the advocates working to protect

class actions and litigation pending before the Supreme Judicial Court.
This update will include the status of the pending litigation, summaries of
successes and lessons learned, and thoughts on the path ahead as the pandemic
continues to surge both locally and nationally.
