About / Mission
A nonprofit that operates a revolving bail fund to pay bail for low-income individuals and provide pretrial support, striving to combat mass incarceration – premised on the idea that freedom should be free.
Volunteer Needs
Volunteers (in cities with Bail Project sites) can serve as “Bail Disruptors” alongside staff – helping to identify people in need of bail assistance, connect clients with social services, remind them of court dates – or contribute remotely by raising awareness and funds to sustain the revolving bail fund. Legal professionals may volunteer to do court follow-ups or compile data to bolster the case for ending cash bail.
