In 2010, LSRJ launched a groundbreaking, funded fellowship program for current 3Ls and recent law school graduates interested in working to advance reproductive justice. Following a tremendous response from students and advocates in the field, we successfully selected and placed six Reproductive Justice Fellows with six organizations in Washington D.C.The RJ Fellowship Program will enhance capacity at reproductive justice organizations working to influence law and policy and build a pipeline for future reproductive justice lawyers. Each RJ Fellows will be paid $50,000 plus benefits and will participate in a year-long program that includes mentoring, professional development, training, and networking opportunities.
For more information about the inaugural class of RJ Fellows, please see the 2010-11 RJ Fellows Biographies.
And now, we are pleased to announce the second class of RJ Fellows, who will serve during the 2011-12 fellowship year. Due to the generous support of our funders, LSRJ was able to place EIGHT RJ Fellows at EIGHT organizations for the 2011-12 fellowship year! For more information about the new RJ Fellows and their placement organizations, please see the 2011-12 RJ Fellows Biographies.
