Equal Justice Works Summer Corps

Equal Justice Works Summer Corps provides law students with the chance to spend their summer working on a legal project at a qualifying nonprofit public interest organization or public defender office of their choosing. Summer Corps members expand the delivery of critically needed legal assistance in low-income and underserved communities across the country on a broad range of issue areas.

Summer Corps is an AmeriCorps-funded program that in 2012 will provide 711 law students with the opportunity to earn a $1,175 education award voucher for dedicating their summer to a qualifying legal project at a nonprofit public interest organization.


Summer Corps will begin accepting online applications for the 2012 program beginning March 1, 2012. The deadline to apply is March 23, 2012. To learn more, and to apply, please visit the Summer Corps website.
