Opportunities for law students interested in prison law and prisoners’ rights

Sharon Dolovich, Professor of Law and Director of the Prison Law & Policy Program at the UCLA School of Law, asked if I could post this year's edition of the UCLA Prison Law Summer Job Search Guide.  As Sharon explained to me: "The guide is intended for current law students around the country interested in summer positions working on behalf of incarcerated people. The guide gives the students a one-stop shop of what organizations are hiring."

Sharon wisely also suggested I also use this opportunity to note anew Prison Law JD for a new crop of young prisoners’ rights advocates.  Again, from Sharon: "Prison Law JD is the national listserv for current law students or recent law grads who are interested in this field. The purpose is to disseminate information about job and fellowship opportunities, conferences, etc. and also to help build a community of the next generation of prisoners’ rights lawyers.  Students who want to join can email me directly at dolovich @ law.ucla.edu ."

I am so grateful for Sharon's terrific work on these important issues.  I am hopeful this message gets widely shared in all networks so that all law students know of these great resources and opportunities.
