Each year, the Berkeley Law Foundation solicits proposals for a public interest law fellowship grant given to a recent law school graduate. BLF awards grants to recent law graduates or new lawyers undertaking public interest projects that serve legally disadvantaged or underrepresented groups. You can learn more about our current fellow and past fellows. Grants usually are awarded in the spring, and grantees start work in the fall.
