The PEP is excited to share that we have received a grant through the Justice Assistance Grant program of the federal Department of Justice and the Oregon Criminal Justice Commission. This funding is incredibly impactful for our work. It will cover some costs associated with our courses, training in the Inside-Out methodology for faculty who want to join our program, support for our interns, new editions of P.E.P. TV and our L.E.A.P. packets for those in solitary confinement, and help us hire a new program coordinator for the PEP. Our work is not possible without support from the university, grants like the new JAG program and our recent Mellon Foundation grant, and contributions from generous donors. We are grateful for the opportunities that this funding allows.
