Appellate Project Mentorship Program Application due September 6

The  Appellate Project, a non-profit dedicated to increasing diversity in the appellate bar, has an opportunity for current and future students (incoming 1Ls to current 3Ls/4Es).

The Appellate Project Mentorship Program is “the first national effort focused on empowering law students of color to pursue appellate work.” The program pairs current law students with mentors in the appellate field (judges, practitioners, etc.). It also provides resources including “clerkship support, networking opportunities with the appellate bar, skill-building workshops, and guidance on appellate job opportunities.” The program is relatively new but growing rapidly under the leadership of the founder Juvaria Khan and a prominent Board of Directors.

The program flyer can be found here: 2021 TAP Mentorship Program. For more information, go to the  Appellate Project’s Mentorship Program website.  The application is due September 6, 2021.
