News  March 2024 is Massachusetts Judicial Outreach Month

March is Judicial Outreach Month in Massachusetts, the Trial Court’s annual community outreach initiative, when judges engage with communities across the Commonwealth about the work of the judicial branch and the importance of an impartial and independent judiciary.

This major effort, part of the American Bar Association’s annual national outreach program, seeks to build community understanding and trust in the judicial system and the court’s commitment to equal access to justice.

To invite a judge to visit with your school, class, or organization in-person or remotely, sign up below to share your organization’s contact information and preferred date and time in March.

The Trial Court Public Outreach Committee will match a judge with your group and will facilitate introductory emails between the judge and your organization.

This is a unique opportunity to learn about the work of the judiciary directly from judges who address a variety of matters presented to the courts every day.
