  • Welcome 2026-2027 Board President, Amelia Blyth

  • The CCDB is dedicated to enhancing the ability of our members to secure and safeguard the constitutional rights of our clients irrespective of their race, gender, or national origin.  As an organization, we understand that people of color, LBGTQ+, and the indigent are treated differently when the government accuses them of a crime.  The CCDB is committed to confronting these systemic inequalities, redressing systemic racism, and ensuring that all our members are equipped with the tools they need to spot and root out the innumerable and pervasive systemic injustices that exist within the criminal legal system.
