Prisoners’ Rights Advocacy Initiative (PRAI) is a non-governmental organization with her central focus on providing pro-bono legal services to prison inmates.
We are working collaboratively with Onyedikachi Ekwerike and his organization Postpartum Support Network (PSN) to ensure that Funmilola Adisa gets the help she needs and not a sentence.

As a society, we fail our moms when we do not provide them access to mental health care during pregnancy and after childbirth. No mom should be left behind. We do this for Funmi, and all moms who might be struggling with their mental health. Know that you’re not alone.
#PRAI
We hope to expand our impact to Borstal Institution, Kaduna as well as do more for this kids across all the Centres. We are just scratching the surface as items donated are barely enough and there are more Centres to be covered.

In the past one week we have received a total of N212,000 and have expended N192,850 to cater for about 775 children in four Juvenile Correctional Centres in Lagos, Ogun and Kwara State. We are very grateful to all our donors.

Our Executive Director @ADEKAHMED paid a courtesy visit to the @jidesanwoolu, Governor of Lagos State in the company of other members of the Board of Trustees of the Lagos Public Interest Law Partnership (LPILP) led by the Chairman, Senator Daisy Danjuma.
The LPILP seeks to compliment the efforts of government by engaging private legal practitioners and NGOs to take up Pro Bono matters on behalf of indigents who can't afford legal fees, to ease the burden of Government agencies already providing legal aids.
The Centre in turn made the pupils understand that there are two sides to life and that they could lose their freedom and liberty if they misbehave.
More schools and entities are making enquiries on how they could be part of this revolution.

Our correctional centres house children possessing sharp intellects, great potentials and lofty ambitions which can only be harnessed in the presence of an enabling environment and a solid support system.

We will not make the most of these tendencies if we continue to fold our arms at the saddening condition of the kids in such centres. We have, as a result, decided to be intentional and proactive about making things work for these young lads.

They got the opportunity to attend a #GrantWriting Seminar organised by @PeaceFirstOrg (USA) in partnership with #YALI few days ago. We believe that this will add more to their knowledge base having been taught strategic ways of solving #socialproblems using the #SolutionTree.
