Kim Kardashian was joined by sister Khloe as they visited a prison in LA on Monday to meet with those behind bars.
The 42-year-old has spearheaded a campaign for criminal justice reform over the last few years, using her platform to help some inmates get their sentences commuted.
She also fronted a documentary about her efforts in 2020, shedding light on her efforts with the justice system and advocating for those who she believed to be wrongly incarcerated.
On Monday, the budding lawyer appeared at Los Angeles County’s California State Prison, in Lancaster, as part of REFORM Alliance’s Future Shapers Advisory Council.
Speaking on the day, she explained that she wanted to help ‘change the lives’ of prisoners.
‘It’s always an honor to be able to visit the men and women living behind our prison walls,’ the mom-of-four said, via MailOnline.
