Paul DePalo Governor's Councilor

Governor's Council approves or rejects potential state judges. As an attorney and former special education teacher who's worked with court-involved youth, I know that judges matter.
​
As Councilor, I've succeeded I advocating for:
* mental health and substance abuse experts in our justice system,
* a trauma-informed juvenile justice system,
* addressing racial sentencing disparities,
* local representation on Parole Board and in our courts,
* protecting women's and LGBTQ rights,
* expanding the use of clemency to provide opportunities and to remedy past injustice.
