Criminal and Legal Justice Day was an unforgettable, behind-the-scenes look at how public safety and justice work together in Napa County. The day kicked off with an introduction to local law enforcement agencies, giving participants a clear picture of how the agencies intersect to serve the community. We then toured the brand-new Napa County jail facility, gaining firsthand insight into modern corrections and rehabilitation efforts - followed by a much-appreciated lunch from Mother’s Tacos!

The afternoon featured powerful presentations from the Napa County Victim Witness Program and Judge Lind, highlighting the human impact of the justice system and the importance of accountability, compassion, and due process. The day wrapped with an engaging Q&A panel that brought it all together, featuring the Sheriff, Police Chief, Public Defender, Deputy District Attorney, and Judge Lind. Their candid discussion sparked thoughtful questions and real-world insight into leadership, ethics, and collaboration in government.

LNV participants left informed, inspired, and energized about civic leadership and public service.
