Faced with a nearly $1 million budget shortfall, the Orleans Public Defenders once again is in crisis and Constitutionally-required legal representation in New Orleans is again in jeopardy due to decreased revenue and budget shortfalls. To this end, OPD launched a crowdfunding campaign to raise $50,000 in five days. The campaign kicked off Monday, September 14 and will go through Friday, September 18.
