Initiatives


Since taking office at the beginning of 2021, District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies and her team have been hard at work improving policies and implementing initiatives to ensure true public safety.

Just this year, Carmack Altwies has implemented the following:

  • A $15 minimum wage for all First Judicial District Attorney personnel.

  • Extended maternity and paternity leave.

  • Prosecution of felony drug possession cases.

  • Expanded diversion programs.

  • More training for law enforcement personnel from the DA's office.

  • And much more to come.
