Dr. Hynes will talk about the ACLU’s pursuit of LGBTQ rights via the Masterpiece Cake Shop case. She will also speak about the Convention on the Rights of the Child and unconscionable activities taking place with children right here in our own state of Colorado, including the solitary confinement of children in a residential treatment center in Pueblo, Colorado.
