Almost 2 million people are currently incarcerated in the United States. In this clinic, students will explore the problem of mass incarceration and the role of race and poverty in the criminal legal system through the representation of indigent clients charged with crimes and probation violations in the Boston Municipal Court in Dorchester, MA. Students represent clients in all stages of the criminal defense case, from pre-trial hearings through trials in criminal court. Through the clinic, students will learn to be zealous, client-centered advocates. Opportunities for systemic advocacy may arise throughout the year.
