Job o' the Day: 2012 Clinical teaching Fellowship at Fordham University School of Law in NY!
Fordham’s Community Economic Development Clinic is offering a Teaching Fellowship starting August 2012. The Fellow will work with experienced CED practitioner Brian Glick. S/he will help supervise students in client representation and co-teach the CED Clinic seminar and is expected to participate actively in the life of our clinical program and law school. We expect the Fellow to be with us for two years.
Fordham’s CED Clinic represents New York City groups fighting for social justice in low-income communities of color and low-wage, predominantly immigrant workforces. As their general counsel the clinic helps sustain effective organizations and build institutions–health clinics, childcare centers, worker-owned enterprises–that empower their participants while providing desperately needed services and opportunities. The clinic supports neighborhood efforts to shape development, limit gentrification and win community benefits agreements. It also assists small grassroots groups with incorporation, bylaws and tax exemption. Students learn transactional business lawyering in a nonprofit social justice setting.
