The award is bestowed on Civil Survival Project for its success in increasing political participation among those who have been incarcerated. The award was presented at the League of Women Voters annual Voices of Democracy gala, which was held on Wednesday, March 27, at the Palace Ballroom in Seattle.

Amanda DuBois, the managing partner at DuBois Cary Law Group, and founder of the Civil Survival Project, announced the award. It is given to individuals and organizations that have helped King County residents to raise their voices in support of equality and civic discourse.

Civil Survival Project Gamechanger leaders, Michelle Jenkins, Cory Walster, Carolina Landa and Kelly Olson accepted the award and celebrated the League of Women’s Voters mission of an active, engaged citizenry.

The DuBois Cary Law Group is known for its high quality service, and provides experienced family law and estate planning in an emotionally supportive environment.

One of the things that sets the firm apart from others in the area is their team approach to family law. The firm is committed to personal service, and helps clients to get the best result in all their divorce and family law cases.

Civil Survival was created in 2015, with the mission of helping those who have been directly impacted by the criminal justice system to build connections, improve their knowledge, and develop participation in the political process.

The site states: “Our Executive Director spent two years in prison as a consequence to her life of trauma, poverty and substance use disorder. She has since graduated law school and fought her way to the Washington Supreme Court to earn the right to become an attorney.”

Civil Survival looks forward to continuing to engage formerly incarcerated people in the political process through its commitment to educating, motivating and liberating individuals who have served time in prison.
