SUMMER 2024 OPPORTUNITY: CILP, IMMFAM, & JOINT CILP-IMMFAM SUMMER FELLOWS
UCLA School of Law’s Center for Immigration Law and Policy (CILP) and Immigrant Family Legal Clinic (ImmFam) are seeking rising second-year and third-year law students to join as the 2024 CILP/ImmFam class of Summer Fellows. Students can apply for the joint fellowship, in which interns split their time between CILP’s policy, litigation, and advocacy work and ImmFam’s direct representation for immigrant families and unaccompanied minors. Or, students can apply to be full-time CILP or ImmFam interns if they wish to focus entirely on policy research, litigation, and other advocacy (with CILP) or direct representation and community based lawyering (with ImmFam).
To apply, please send a statement of interest, your resume, and your transcript to cilp@law.ucla.edu with the subject line “CILP Summer Fellow Application.” Please indicate in the text of your email whether you are interested in CILP full-time only, or being considered for a joint or full-time position with ImmFam as well. The expected time commitment is 40 hours/week from late May through early August. CILP summer fellows may participate in a hybrid remote/on-campus setting. For those interested in a joint or full-time position with ImmFam, strong preference will be given to those able to be in Los Angeles and those fluent in Spanish. We welcome applications from all students, regardless of immigration status. Summer fellows may receive compensation, a stipend, or academic credit. Applications will be considered on a rolling basis beginning on January 12, 2024, with preference given to those who submit by that date.
