Forum on jailhouse future

The Brooklyn House of Detention Stakeholders invite members of the community to attend an open forum to discuss the future of the Brooklyn Jail on May 29 at 7 p.m. at the Belarusian Church, Atlantic Avenue and Bond Street.

The Department of Corrections and the City of New York have plans to reopen the jail and double the inmate population, without including the community involvement in the process.
