8 Legal Community Partnership Programs We create opportunities for attorneys, law students, police officers, and other legal professionals to serve their communities through partnerships with local schools and organizations. Our Legal Diversity Pipeline Program prepares volunteers from corporate law departments and law firms to teach young people about law and legal careers—with an ultimate goal of encouraging more young people of color to pursue a career in the legal profession. This program is conducted in partnership with NALP and the Association of Corporate Counsel. You can find Street Law programs at law schools across the country and around the globe, preparing law students to visit classrooms to teach young people about the law. We support these efforts by training and coaching program directors to implement successful programs. We are on a mission to equip school and community police officers with the tools they need to be effective educators.

This helps build trust and encourages learning from both sides of the relationship. 1,964 legal community volunteers mobilized 5,073 students reached by these programs; many who were low income students of color Our 2019 impact: Our 2019 impact:
