Public Interest Programs and ResourcesCP&P co-sponsors public interest programs with Penn Law's Toll Public Interest Center, including a Public Interest Awareness series to introduce students to various types of public interest practices. Although practice areas change with student interest, recent topics addressed community economic development, criminal defense and death penalty litigation, public international law and private public interest practice, among others. CP&P also offers workshops on debt management, fellowship opportunities and public interest job search strategies. Additionally, CP&P maintains a library of public interest resources including organizational directories, job search guides, nonprofit directories and guides and general career development guides, as well as files on hundreds of public interest and government employers. The CP&P library contains current job listings from public interest and government employers, as well as postgraduate and summer fellowship opportunities. Additionally, all graduate and alumni jobs are listed on the CP&P web page.In addition to CP&P's own extensive database of legal employers, Penn Law is a member of PSLawnet, a national database with thousands of public interest and government employers, job listings and fellowship opportunities. Students can gain access to PSLawnet through CP&P or the Toll Public Interest Center. |
