The BMF star has set up her own nonprofit organization, ThreeSixty, which mentors young Black men between the ages of 18 and 21 who are incarcerated on Rikers Island in New York.
‘She’s my best friend, so it’s great to have a better friend that you can bounce ideas off of or say, “What do you think about this?”‘ The Perfect Find actress explained to People.
Sometimes it’s asking, ‘”What does the law say when it comes to this?'” Because she’s studying to be a lawyer, so it’s great to say, “Hey, what does the law say in this situation? Or what would you do here?”‘
La La Anthony, 41, said she is grateful for Kim Kardashian’s help in her justice reform efforts. ‘It’s a great thing to talk about and have someone in my corner in that way,’ she told People. stated, ‘she has just provided so much support to ThreeSixty as well’
‘I mean, it’s a great thing to talk about and have someone in my corner in that way,’ she stated, ‘and I admire all the amazing things that she’s done, and she has just provided so much support to ThreeSixty as well.’
Justice reform is a project Kardashian works on quietly behind the scenes.
She was instrumental in getting former President Donald Trump to commute the sentences of several women who had been behind bars for years on minor drug offenses.
The Kardashians star, who has passed the ‘baby bar’ or first year law students’ exam in California, is working to get her law degree while still running her beauty and shapewear empire.
‘The journey just really opened up my eyes so much. It gets overwhelming because there’s so much to be done,’ she said at the TIME 100 Summit in April 2023.
The organization provides mentorship, mental health support education, job training and workforce development skills for the young inmates.
‘We want them to be prepared with certain skills so they can really get out there and back into life and into the workforce after release,’ she said.
One young man was able to get a full scholarship to Columbia University less than a year after his release.

Being a mother to son Kiyan, 16, fueled her passion for the project. ‘It feels like any one of our kids could be one bad decision away from being in a similar situation,’ she explained
‘It’s really amazing to see that when you take them out of jail and put them in the right environment, with the right opportunities and love and support, incredible things can happen.’
Being a mother to a teenaged son fueled her passion for the project.
The former reality star shares her son, Kiyan, 16, with her ex-husband Carmelo Anthony.’At this age they are still so young,’ she said of the young men she sponsors.
‘When you talk to them, especially if you have your own kids, you just become so much more compassionate. It feels like any one of our kids could be one bad decision away from being in a similar situation.’
