RAPPAPORT CENTER FOR LAW AND PUBLIC SERVICE

The Rappaport Center for Law and Public Service at Suffolk University Law School fosters innovative thinking on law and public policy and promotes emerging leaders who are deeply committed to public service and pro bono work.

Serving as the home to all public service related activity at the law school, the Rappaport Center:

• Sponsors an extensive public policy programming agenda;
• Advises students interested in public service careers; and
• Manages the law school's pro bono program.

At the heart of the Center is the already thriving Rappaport Fellows Program in Law and Public Policy. The Rappaport Fellowship is a highly competitive program dating back to 2000, which engages twelve law students from Boston area law schools in policy work at state and local government agencies each summer.
