We host law students throughout the year who are looking to gain experience in disability rights.

Legal interns are tasked with assignments related to legal writing and research on current matters.  They have the opportunity to work with a number of different attorneys and on a range of legal issues over the course of their internship.  Interns also participate in intake meetings where potential matters are assessed for representation and brief services are provided.  Interns also participate in facility monitoring and investigations.
