Youth Re-entry and Legal Services Clinic Students will work directly with court-involved youth and learn substantive law in the areas of criminal justice and reentry. They will assist in interviewing and advising clients with criminal records on their legal rights and obligations, obtaining and reviewing criminal histories, correcting errors, sealing appropriate records, and applying for certificates of relief from disabilities. Students will also assist in direct legal representation in both criminal and family court, employment discrimination and employment licensing denials, school suspension and public housing denial and eviction proceedings, and access to higher education.
