Access to Justice Tech Fellows

Through the Access to Justice Tech Fellowship Program, law students undertake immersive, 10-week, paid summer fellowships with legal organizations to tackle the many barriers preventing low-income Americans from receiving legal help.

The Access to Justice Tech Fellows program is a non-profit organization housed and in affiliation with the Future of the Profession Initiative.

 

As the next generation of civil justice leaders, A2J Tech Fellows better ensure equitable access to justice for all by learning to leverage technology, data, and user-centered design approaches to innovate new and improved solutions to this global problem.

Our Mission

A2J Tech Fellows seeks to inspire and equip the next generation of civil justice leaders with the skills, knowledge, and attitudes to build a more responsive civil justice system — one that ensures equitable access and fair outcomes for low-income and marginalized populations.

The Summer Fellowship Program

The A2J Tech Fellows program provides law students a dynamic learning experience that merges interdisciplinary skills training with practical experience.

At the intersection of access to justice and innovation, law students spend the summer developing innovative projects and initiatives aimed to improve our civil justice system.

Law students gain exposure to the varied uses of technology, data, and design in delivering legal services and develop a deep understanding of the systemic barriers that prevent marginalized communities from receiving adequate legal services.
