improve perceptions of fairness and improve
community support of our American justice system.
The program will suggest specific ways individual
judicial officers can take affirmative steps in this
direction.

appropriate? What is there to do after I leave the
bench? What are my choices and how can I facilitate
them? How much will it cost and how can I support
myself once I retire? How does the Department of
