Partners for Justice is a nonprofit organization committed to transforming the public defense system. We collaborate with public defender offices across the country to provide essential support services to individuals facing criminal charges. By offering comprehensive resources and training, we empower public defenders to deliver effective representation and protect the rights of marginalized communities.
Our paid, 2-year, Client Advocate Fellowship provides a unique opportunity for passionate individuals to gain hands-on experience in public defense and social justice. Fellows work closely with experienced public defenders and social workers to provide essential legal and social services to clients facing criminal charges.
Through intensive training, mentorship, and real-world experience, fellows develop the skills and knowledge necessary to advocate for the rights of marginalized communities. This fellowship offers a transformative experience for those committed to making a difference in the lives of others and shaping a more just future.
