Since its founding in 2010, the Center for Global
Justice, Human Rights, and the Rule of Law® has sought to fulfill its
mission of equipping Christian advocates and serving those working in the field
through its internship grant program. Through this program, select law students
receive a grant to cover the costs of their internship. Grants are primarily
given to interns working with legal organizations that focus on combating human
trafficking, advancing the rule of law, protecting children, securing religious
freedom, and related human rights issues. Many of our interns work with
international organizations, which provides them with not only quality legal
experience, but also the experience of practicing law in another country and
working on the front lines.
To date, 60 interns have served in countries including
Cambodia, France, Greece, India, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Nepal, Russia, Rwanda,
Uganda, Ghana, Malawi, Ukraine, the United Kingdom, in the Middle East, and
throughout the United States.
Every year, the Center aspires to provide grants to at least
20 passionate law students. Sponsoring one intern generally costs
$5,000. This funding is absolutely crucial. Without the grant, most, if not
all, of the students would not be able to complete the internships. Because of
our internship grant program, the oppressed are receiving justice, students are
gaining valuable legal experience, and the organizations working in the field
receive a quality legal intern free of charge. Please support this program. If
you are interested in sponsoring an intern or donating to the internship
program, please let us know by emailing globaljustice@regent.edu.
