Each year, a dedicated law student is awarded the opportunity to engage in a project that strengthens his or her commitment to advocacy and promotes justice and equality for vulnerable immigrant groups.

The Fellowship will be awarded to one law student each summer to work on a student-initiated project. Applications for the 2014 Fellowship must be received by February 17, 2014 (see application form for details). Students must submit a project proposal with an organization willing to host the student for 10 weeks and provide a $1,500 stipend. The $1,500 amount may be paid by the host organization or may be provided by the law student through other means, e.g., law school public interest funding, independent fundraising, etc. The Maggio Immigrants' Rights Fellowship will provide an additional $2,500 stipend for a total award of $4,000.
