For more than two decades, Equal Justice America Fellowships have provided an invaluable experience for law students to work at legal aid organizations that protect battered women, abused and neglected children, veterans, the elderly, immigrants, individuals with disabilities and other low-income Americans. These are the people EJA goes to bat for every day by putting law students and lawyers to work for legal aid programs throughout the country.

Since 2009 when EJA launched its Pennsylvanians for Equal Justice campaign, Equal Justice America has sponsored over 120 Law Student Fellowships in Pennsylvania.
