Mobile Legal Clinic Shifts in Need of Students

Do you need a few more hours to reach the 50-hour goal and get your honor cord for service? Sign up for a few shifts with the Mobile Legal Clinic. If you are already experienced with the MVLC, no minimum number of shifts is required.

These shifts take you right into the community to work with volunteer lawyers providing legal advice services in isolated urban areas. Sign up here if you're interested!
