The PA DOC Monitor is in need of volunteers with a legal background.   This may include practicing lawyers, students of law, or individuals with prior experience in law.   Your time and effort will be spent toward the examination and reform of Pennsylvania's Department of Corrections, and also to safeguard the rights of prisoners and their family.   Currently we are seeking individuals who can obtain a complete breakdown of the PA DOC budget through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).   Some key information we are seeking includes:

  • How the General Inmate Fund (GIF) is spent and allocated
  • The amount of revenue collected by food service corporations
  • Revenue collected by the State on commissary items
  • Revenue collected for telephone services

If you are an individual, or know of an individual who can assist in obtaining the above data please send an E-Mail to editor@pa-doc-monitor.org.
