Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Email info@phillyjusticeproject.org to talk about which volunteer role fits your skills, interests and availability..

You need to sign up first.

What to expect

Your first step is an email conversation about your skills, your interests and how much time you can give. The site does not describe shifts, training or a time commitment, so ask about those in your first email. Internships are unpaid and hybrid, with in-person meetings, court hearings and sometimes visits to prison and jail facilities.

Tips for your first visit

  • Write a short email about your skills and the hours you can give.
  • Ask about time commitment, training and whether a role is remote or in person, since the site does not say.
  • For an internship, check eligibility: the page lists law students, graduate students in the social sciences, and advanced undergraduates.
  • For an internship, expect travel to court hearings and to prison and jail facilities.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: The group invites anyone to start with an email about volunteering. The site names no application steps, open roles or training, and its internships are unpaid and aimed at students..
