Attorneys and Judges
Attorneys and judges play a vital role in this work. As professionals in the field,
they bring firsthand knowledge of the rule of law and a clear understanding of its
impact on individuals, communities, and justice systems.
Join a Prison Project
Attorneys and judges are welcome to inquire about joining us on a Prison Project. Serving alongside local judges, prosecutors, and defense counsel, participants act as practitioners, collaborators, and trainers. It's an incredible opportunity to model ethical advocacy while humbly supporting nationally led reform efforts. Prior experience practicing criminal law is not required.
Whether reviewing case files, mentoring law students, or contributing to plea bargaining discussions, attorneys and judges bring both technical skill and steady leadership to environments where it is deeply needed.
If this opportunity resonates with you and stirs a desire to engage more deeply in
global justice work, we encourage you to connect with our team to begin the conversation.
We would be pleased to learn more about you and your experiences, as well as to share
upcoming project opportunities, program expectations, and potential next steps.
Testimonial
Serving with SGJI as part of its Prison Project profoundly changed my life in ways I never imagined.
Every attorney (and law student) should find a way to be part of this work and go on a Prison Project. I can assure you that if you do, you will return with a fresh perspective on what it truly means to practice law.
