Our mission is to leverage the collective forces of students and experienced advocates to achieve justice for all... Rising for Justice (formerly DC Law Students in Court) is a nationally recognized leader at training social justice advocates and representing clients in grave legal jeopardy in the District of Columbia. We make justice a reality for vulnerable District residents via free, high-quality attorney and law student representation, and our wrap-around social work services create long-lasting outcomes for our clients. Since our founding over 50 years ago, we have protected the rights of more than 250,000 District residents and trained over 4,000 students through our law school clinic programs... Our clients depend on us, and we depend on you to make our services available, accessible, and responsive. We call on the community to help us lift up our vulnerable clients and families who need the critical legal and social work services that our team provides.
