Decongesting Nigerian correctional facilities through Technology


Headfort Foundation provides free legal services to people who can’t afford lawyers. Through their app, Lawyers NowNow, users can access free legal advice and get connected to pro bono lawyers. The group of all-female lawyers work exclusively with people who do not have the resources to hire lawyers, especially those that have been victims of police brutality or wrongfully incarcerated. The group has worked on over 1,000 cases in three years and secured the release of almost 300 people in that time.
