Fellowships
The Arthur Liman Public Interest Fellowship and Fund provides support to students through the following fellowship programs:

Yale Law School Fellowship
 
 The fellowships for Yale Law School graduates  allow students to spend a year working on public interest legal issues such as welfare rights, homelessness, racial profiling, indigent criminal defense, alternative sentencing courts, immigration, workers rights, and juvenile justice.

In addition, the Program encourages current law students to work with Fellows on research or advocacy projects. For example, students have helped Fellows draft briefs in capital cases, research welfare regulations and elder law, and edited and published papers on legal services. More…
