The Center seeks full-time volunteer interns for each summer. We are looking for first and second year students who are self-starters. Applicants must have good communication and “people” skills and a strong interest in criminal defense work.
The primary focus of the summer internship will be on helping clients resolve the day-to-day problems they face during their incarceration. Interns will have hands-on contact with our clients and their family members. Additionally, interns will have the opportunity to work closely with appellate attorneys on substantive writing projects, including briefs and motions and will be involved with the Justice First collateral relief project.
Interested students should mail or fax a cover letter and resume to:
