The Center for Patient Partnerships, an interdisciplinary health advocacy center, is hosting an information session for current first and second-year law students. Those interested in health law, administrative law, disability and employment issues should consider attending and applying.

When: Tuesday, Nov. 3, noon-1:00 p.m.
Where: Room 2225
Who: Panel of current students and CPP faculty
Why: Learn about how the clinic works, ask questions and enjoy snacks

Students may participate for a range of credits (3-7), which corresponds to 15-35 hours a week of advocacy work. Students can expect to have several of their own clients, participate in our triage process to evaluate new clients, assist patients with critical advocacy issues, and work on an interdisciplinary team. Advocacy work at the center is comprehensive, so law students will provide advocacy on legal and non-legal topics.

To apply to the clinic, complete the application available at the website: www.law.wisc.edu/clinics and follow the instructions at the bottom of the page though Symplicity.

For more information about the clinical experience visit our website, or contact Jill Jacklitz.
