The Deryl Dantzler Trial Practice Institute is a transformative experience. Every year, hundreds of defense attorneys who attend receive elite trial skills training, empowering them to become great trial lawyers and advocates for change in the criminal legal system. But when these defenders leave TPI, the separation from the people and culture often makes it hard for individual defenders to sustain their skills and passion.

The NCDC Alumni Network aims to overcome that challenge, by creating and sustaining connections between graduates of the Deryl Dantzler Trial Practice Institute, by providing ongoing skills training to alumni, and by empowering alumni to collaborate in pursuit of systemic change. The Network will also build leaders within the defense community and raise funds for the sole purpose of supporting the College.
