AceShowbiz - Kim Kardashian thinks it is an "honor" to be able to spend time with prison inmates. "The Kardashians" star paid a visit to Los Angeles County's California State Prison on Monday, April 17 along with her younger sister Khloe Kardashian as part of REFORM Alliance's Future Shapers Advisory Council and explained that she wants to use her celebrity platform to "change the lives" of those behind bars.

"It's always an honor to be able to visit the men and women living behind our prison walls," the 42-year-old said following the visit. "Hearing the stories of people trapped in the prison system is what drives my commitment to advocate for reform and find ways to leverage my platform to help change lives and laws."

Kim went on to add that she was "thrilled" to be able to bring the council, which was established in 2018 by rapper Meek Mill, alongside Jay-Z and others, into the prison as she vowed to be building the next generation of leaders. "Today I was especially thrilled to bring REFORM's Future Shapers Advisory Council inside the prison as well. We are building up the next generation of leaders and influencers who will join us in this fight," she stated.

The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" alum is currently training to be a lawyer and in January of this year is said to have met criminals in "solitary confinement" at the Pelican Bay State Prison in Crescent, CA where she reportedly had discussions with them about their mental health.

At the time, a source told TMZ, "Kim spent a day at Pelican Bay State Prison in Crescent, CA earlier this week." The source added, "Her focus was to meet with inmates in solitary confinement, speaking with them in depth about the toll the lockup can have on their mental stability."
