The Legal Management Society (LMS), together with the Sebastian Office of Legal Aid (SOLA), conducted a meaningful and eye-opening jail visit at the Makati City Jail under the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP).
This outreach program was conducted for the Female Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDLs) in celebration of Womenโs Month, with the aim of reinforcing its commitment to understanding the law not only as a system of rules, but as a lived reality for many individuals. The activity serves as an extension of classroom learning, allowing members to witness firsthand the conditions, processes, and human stories within the correctional system.
One of the highlights in this morningโs program was the legal aid rendered by SOLA internsโ4th year law students of the San Sebastian College of Lawโwho provided guidance and clarification to PDLs on their cases and rights under the supervision of Atty. Kidd Gayos, Atty. Aris Dumlao, Atty. Ryan Lopez, and Atty. Ryan Ceazar Romano.
The Legal Management Society created and facilitated a well-prepared outreach program, organized activities, and distributed meals and essential goods, while a shared musical moment fostered unity among PDLs, students, and BJMP officers.
Overall, the activity centered on the importance of legal awareness, dignity, and compassion in the pursuit of justice.
This outreach program was made possible with the generosity of our major sponsors (The Caridad T. Tulfo Foundation, Atty. Al Parreรฑo, Atty. John Keith Flores, Atty. Jonathan Mengullo, and an anonymous lawyer), minor sponsors (Atty. Corazon S. Agustin, Mrs. Jhona Marcelino, Mr. Albert Bilason, Ms. Celine Villafuerte, Mr. Francis Tan, Cong. Roman Romulo, Ms. Veatrice Anne Vingona, Ms. Rachel Gutierrez, Ms. Leanna Adrianne Vicente) and the coordination of the LMS with JSINSP Anilyn R. Dolendo, Acting Jail Warden, and SJO1 Charlloth F. Cepeda of the Makati City Jail Female Dormitory under the BJMP.
