The Association of Prosecuting Attorneys (APA), in partnership with Microsoft, will host an in‑person AI Hackathon for the Public Sector at the Urban Institute.
This full‑day, hands‑on program brings together a small cohort for applied learning, expert coaching, and collaborative problem‑solving focused on the responsible use of AI in prosecutorial and public‑sector settings. The day begins with a practical foundation—what AI is (and isn’t), ethical use, organizational guardrails, and prompting basics—before moving into role‑relevant use cases for research, drafting, analysis, and workflow support. Participants then engage in guided and independent labs, working in teams to tackle real‑world prosecutorial challenges and develop solutions they can take back to their offices. The day concludes with a networking reception.
Attendance is first‑come, first‑served and capped at 50 participants. If your plans change, please notify contact@apainc.org so a waitlisted attendee may participate.
Prosecutors, office leadership, data and IT staff, analysts, and technologists interested in hands‑on learning and practical applications of AI in prosecutorial and public‑sector contexts.
