Nonprofit career

In 2005, Sturm established Prisonersolidarity.org, a website and listserv that publishes research, news, opinion pieces and educational material from activists, writers, prisoners, and the concerned public.[7] The Prisonersolidarity project (which has 650 subscribers) was inspired by his work with labor and civil rights attorneys Staughton and Alice Lynd, and the families and community groups involved in the Youngstown Prison Forum.
