“Last week, the ACLU of Nevada honored our very own Wences Perez with the 2024 Advocacy for Criminal Legal System Reform Award and Public Defender alumni NLV JC Judge Belinda Harris with the Emilie Wanderer Civil Libertarian of the Year Award. As the Public Defender, Nancy Lemke, stated in announcing Wences’s honor, “Our people are our superpower.” Thank you to the ACLU of Nevada for honoring Wences Perez and Judge Belinda Harris. The Public Defender’s office is always ready to fight the good fight alongside you!”
