Compensation: <\/strong>Because we have limited resources, the Center for Constitutional Rights requires applicants to make diligent efforts to secure summer funding from their law schools. If you are not able to get funding from your school, or your school provides funding at a lower amount than the Center for Constitutional Rights, we will provide you with summer funding or will supplement your school\u2019s funding. Last year the Center for Constitutional Rights funded internships up to $7500\/summer. Accepted students will receive more information about this process after receiving notice of their acceptance. The Center for Constitutional Rights also provides up to $1000 in relocation funding for students who live outside the New York City area and up to $500 for local transportation costs. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Application Deadlines and Timeline: <\/strong>The application process opens for 2Ls on September 14, 2021, and closes on October 19, 2021, at midnight ET. During this period, candidates will be able to complete an online application on the Center for Constitutional Rights website (ccrjustice.org) or at the link: <\/span>https:\/\/ellabakerccr.wufoo.com\/forms\/ella-baker-2022-summer-internship-application\/<\/span><\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Ella Baker Internship program is primarily staffed by 2Ls, but we do sometimes hire exceptional 1Ls. Please note, in 2020 and 2021 we did not interview or hire any 1Ls. We will make a decision about 1L hiring after the 2L process is complete. If we do hire 1Ls for 2022, applicants may upload their applications between December 1, 2021, and December 30, 2021. 1L applications uploaded before or after this period will not be considered. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

After receipt of application materials, interviews will be offered to some applicants. All interviews will be conducted via videoconference.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Interviews for 2L applicants will be held from early to mid-November, 2021, and 2L students will be informed by early December if they are selected. Interviews for 1L applicants (should they occur) will be held in late January 2022, and 1L students will be informed if they were selected by early February.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
