Despite the fact that we've been going strong as a CRN, our web presence has been somewhat... lacking for the past three years.  All of that's about to change.  We have TWO huge announcements. 

First, we have a NEW NAME!  By popular demand, Everyday Legality is now Everyday Legality and Access to Justice!  We are very, very excited to bring more access to justice researchers into CRN 39, and particularly to create a broader community.

Second, we have TWO NEW CO-LEADERS!  Alyx Mark of Wesleyan University and Daria Fisher Page of the University of Iowa will be leading the CRN alongside Katie Young, who--frankly--could really use the infusion of energy and new ideas.

Stay tuned  for more.  We have a whole lot planned for you!

The Everyday Legality CRN had its inaugural panel at the (virtual) annual meeting of the Law & Society Association this year.  The panel, The Police and the People: Everyday Legality, Legal Consciousness, and The Relationship Between Self and State, featured research by Erez Garnai, Fran Buntman and Tifenn Drouaud, and Ryan Steel.  

Additionally, we sponsored a roundtable session organized by Alyx Mark, Access to Justice and Everyday Life: New Research on Individuals' Experiences With the Law and Legal Institutions, which  included work by Jeanne Charn Bellow, Shannon Gleeson, Veronica Horowitz, Arianne Renan Barzilay, and Emily Taylor Poppe.
