Overview

Mission

To promote and encourage reform in the law

What it reported doing in 2024

To promote and encourage reform in the law; to promote the due and complete administration of justice; to further legal education; to foster, encourage and perpetuate our democratic system of government.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and expenses are high relative to revenue.
