How does PLN support its operations?
A. PLN is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that is primarily funded by subscription and advertising revenue, foundation grants, book sales and individual donations. Subscription rates for prisoners are kept at a near subsidized level by the higher rates for non-prisoners and advertising revenue that enable PLN to cover its operating costs. PLN’s financial self-sufficiency enables it to maintain complete editorial independence. We also gratefully accept donations and grants and receives grants from several large foundations.
