Definitely include La Raza Centro Legal in San Francisco. They are a grassroots social justice organization that combines legal advocacy, direct legal services, community organizing and empowerment, and leadership development. They are a great organization for law students to know about. the website is www.lrcl.org

Hola a todos,
Sorry for all of the e-mails, I have so many of them!
Can everyone send information on some good organizations that they know of that do work in the communities. Doesn't have to be anything extensive... Even just names and/or websites will be fine.
We would like to make this guide as comprehensive as possible so I welcome all and any suggestions for information to include.
Gracias,
Mercedes.

Hey Everyone,
I am in the process of compiling the NLLSA Activist Law Students Guide. Will folks please send info about organizations they know of that you would like included in the guide. Things to think about: alternative media sources and publishing companies, public interst legal orgs, grass roots organizing orgs including youth, prison rights, immigrant rights, farmworkers, civil liberties, etc, law school programs focused on progressive lawyering including summer programs or study abroad, progressive lawering events or other groups that law students might want to network with and anything else you can think of that should be included in the guide.
Think about networks that exist in your area and how they can benefit other students.
If you can send your info by Sept 20, so I have time to compile before the conferance that would be great.
Thanks,
Cassandra
