About the Project
What are "judicial interest organizations"?
This WikiProject was created to categorize pages for groups, foundations, non-profits and donors that have an interest in some aspect of the judiciary. Many of these groups have a specific aim or operate solely within the judiciary of one state, while some are national organizations that work with all fifty states and the federal judiciary.
Goal
The goal of this project is to standardize pages on Judgepedia for the groups that participate in the debates and elections of the judiciary. This Project will create a format for these pages to follow, in addition to a category structure that will make it simpler for Judgepedia staff and users to identify groups within this Project.
Format
Introduction
- where is the organization located?
- what is the "official" purpose of the group, as listed on its website?

- New category structure:
