2025 CCE Highlights

CCE, along with 20+ cosponsoring organizations, is hosting educational candidate forums for the 2026 D.C. Mayoral and Congressional races.

Every spring, the Council for Court Excellence (CCE) hosts its Justice Potter Stewart Award Dinner to honor people and organizations that have demonstrated exceptional leadership in advancing justice in the District of Columbia. The 2026 dinner will be held on Thursday, May 21 at the Organization of American States, honoring Sandra Jackson, President and CEO of House of Ruth, and Washington Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights & Urban Affairs. 

In the fall of 2025, CCE released a series of educational fact sheets focused on different aspects of D.C. criminal law, youth justice, courts, and legal systems that are receiving local and national attention.
