The Bronx Defenders welcomes our 2014 summer interns!

We are very excited to welcome our summer 2014 interns today! Over the course of the next 10 weeks, 52 law school students and 15 college students from over 25 different schools will work together with attorneys and advocates in our Family Defense Practice, Criminal Defense Practice, Civil Action Practice, Immigration Practice, Policy & Community Organizing Team, Community Intake Team, and Solitary Confinement Project.

The Bronx Defenders internship program is heralded as one of the top models in the country. With a strong belief in giving students the opportunity to experience and learn client-centered, holistic advocacy, we provide our interns with much of the same intensive training that our attorneys receive in holistic defense and trial skills.
