CDP welcomes applications for internships and fellowships from law students, apprentices, and recent graduates.  Most of these positions support our activist criminal defense and/or fossil fuel divestment work.

We accept applications year-round on a rolling basis.  To apply, please send a cover letter, resume, transcript, and writing sample to info@climatedefenseproject.org.  

These positions are unpaid.  Although in limited circumstances we may be able to help exceptionally strong candidates identify funding sources, applicants must ordinarily secure external funding on their own. Your law school, the National Lawyers Guild, and social justice-oriented fellowship programs are all good places to begin the process.
