PLEA currently runs programs at the Metropolitan Remand Centre.
PLEA’s presentations focus on preparing men on remand for the court process, and addressing family law matters
Our Court and Legal Processes presentation is delivered by our team of law student volunteers and deals with important topics such as working with lawyers, bail, trial processes and sentencing. PLEA’s Family Law program provides information on divorce, parenting arrangements, division of property and family violence.

PLEA has previously run programs in Barwon Prison, Dame Phyllis Frost Centre, Marngoneet Correctional Centre, Melbourne Assessment Prison, Parkville Youth Justice Centre, Ravenhall Prison and Port Phillip Prison. These programs were suspended or moved online due to the impacts of COVID restrictions, PLEA is working to resume these programs in 2024.
