Mazzoni Center, a nonprofit organization which focuses on the health and wellness needs of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community, is currently accepting applications from first and second year law students for summer internships for the summer of 2012. The summer program will begin on Tuesday, May 29, 2012, and end on Friday, August 3, 2012.

Interns will gain familiarity with the unique ways that the legal system addresses the specific needs of the LGBT community. They will contribute to the mission of the office by ensuring that this community has a voice in the legal system. We also represent individuals in cases which may have an impact on the status of LGBT rights within Pennsylvania. Interns will work closely with attorneys on a wide variety of cases, some of which may involve precedent-setting legal issues.
