Now is the time to begin keeping track of upcoming organization-based fellowship deadlines. These fellowships are funded by the organizations that host them and do not require a project proposal. Most positions serve as staff attorneys within the office and provide the training and mentorship new lawyers need to become successful advocates in local and state government and at nonprofits.
To keep track of deadlines, login to PSJD.org, go to Search Jobs, under Refine Search select Job Qualities, Post-Graduate Fellowships, select Legal: Organizational (Internally-Funded). After the results load, hover over the bell icon to turn email notifications on in order to receive regular updates for any new organization-based fellowships added to PSJD.org.
