Equal Justice Works Fellowships

To increase our capacity to provide high quality, free legal services to New Mexico’s low-income immigrant and refugee communities, we partner with the Equal Justice Works (EJW) nonprofit organization to host public service legal professionals on our staff.

In line with NMILC’s core values, Equal Justice Works looks to create a just society by mobilizing the next generation of lawyers committed to public service. Fellows serving with NMILC get a chance to develop their legal acumen while simultaneously finding their place in the legal profession and learning how to navigate institutional barriers.
