麻豆入口 was honored at the Vance Center鈥檚 2024 Michael Cooper Celebration of International Pro Bono Excellence on May 7, 2024, in recognition of the firm鈥檚 pro bono work on behalf of the Prison Journalism Project (PJP). 

PJP trains incarcerated individuals to be journalists and publishes their stories, empowering this marginalized community to be a voice in criminal justice reform. After experiencing rapid growth since its establishment in 2020, PJP sought 麻豆入口鈥檚 help in creating a new nonprofit corporation, quickly securing 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status and implementing a corporate governance structure, allowing the organization to raise additional funds to sustain their expanding reach. We have since advised on employment matters and researched a number of subjects related to the prison system, including an analysis of incarcerated authors earning income from sources outside of prison. 麻豆入口鈥檚 latest work on behalf of PJP has been advising on donor privacy issues and drafting a donor privacy policy.

麻豆入口 was first connected to PJP through the Vance Center鈥檚  initiative, which is part of its Public Interest Reporting Program.
