More about the Bellow Scholar Program:

Every two years the Bellow Scholar Program seeks innovative proposals by clinical legal educators designed to improve the quality of justice in communities, enhance the delivery of legal services, and promote economic and social justice.

In particular, the selection committee is interested in recognizing and supporting projects that employ empirical analysis as an advocacy tool and involve substantial collaboration between law and other academic disciplines. Selected projects become the focus of information sharing, discussion, and critique at the annual AALS Clinical Conference and at annual workshops organized by the committee. Selected Bellow Scholars are appointed for a two-year term.

You can read more about the Program, the 2021-2022 Bellow Scholars, and past projects on our website. The new class of Bellow Scholars will be announced in January 2023.

Prospective Bellow Workshop: November 18, 2022

The Prospective Bellow Workshop, to be held the 18th of November, is an opportunity to learn about empirical methodologies, hear from clinicians who have done this work, and get direct feedback on your project ideas.  Attendance is not required for prospective applicants. However, we design the workshop to address common pitfalls and answer questions, which is why we strongly encourage applicant attendance. Please register for the workshop here by November 15, 2022.

Please contact us at bellowscholarprogram@gmail.com if you have any questions.

Thank you for your interest,
