Since its founding in 1947, The Center for American and International Law (CAIL) has improved the quality of justice in North Texas and the world through educational and professional development courses designed for lawyers, law enforcement officers, and the public. CAIL's impact extends beyond the program participants because they allow the participants to better serve their communities, the courts, and the judicial system. Through programs like Actual Innocence, we help participants become better lawyers and law enforcement officers while preventing innocent people from being wrongly imprisoned, their lives destroyed, and their families devastated. Moreover, CAIL's law enforcement programs prepare police officers with ethical leadership skills to enhance community well-being and safety. Our goal is that all our participants receive the educational tools needed to exercise their responsibilities with skill, integrity, and fairness.
The Center for American and International Law (CAIL) is dedicated to improving the quality of justice through the education of lawyers, law enforcement officers and the public.
Institute for Law Enforcement Administration (ILEA) – Offers comprehensive education for law enforcement officers and professionals, focusing on leadership, ethics, diversity, and communication skills. Many departments face limited training budgets, making it difficult for them to access this critical leadership and ethics training.
Criminal Justice Programs – Delivers specialized education to all courtroom professionals, including prosecutors, defense attorneys, and judges, ensuring the highest standards of justice are upheld.
Actual Innocence Program – Educates the key players in the justice system on the primary causes of wrongful convictions and provides guidance on how to prevent them, helping to safeguard the integrity of the justice system.
Donations as part of North Texas Giving Day will help CAIL provide high-quality ethics-driven education to North Texas-based law enforcement officers to promote ethical, prosecutors, and defense counsels.
