The leading LGBTQ human rights group - Asociación Entre Amigos (‘AEA’) - is requesting 3rd year law students, or law school graduates for their new legal services office in San Salvador to assist in the implementation of the new legislation and to provide a full-spectrum of basic legal services to their low-income clients.

The Women's Law and Public Policy Fellowship Program (WLPPFP) offers Fellowships for public interest lawyers from the United States who are committed to advancing women's rights throughout their careers. Throughout the Fellowship year, participants gain invaluable experience by working on women's issues in Washington, D.C. with a public interest organization or governmental agency and by participating in educational and professional development opportunities organized by WLPPFP.
The Fellowships are determined each year based upon several factors, including the interests of the top Fellowship candidates, the potential placement organizations and the donors supporting the Fellowships. Since the establishment of the Program, WLPPFP has been fortunate to be able to place a Women's Law Fellow each year with the Georgetown University Law Center Domestic Violence Clinic, the National Partnership for Women and Families, and the National Women's Law Center - three preeminent women's rights entities in Washington, DC.
The Program periodically offers specially designated Fellowships, such as the Rita Charmatz Davidson Fellowship addressing the rights of low-income women; the Harriet B. Burg Fellowship addressing the rights of women with disabilities; Ford Foundation Fellowships focusing on issues concerning women and HIV/AIDS; etc.
The following are potential work placements for the 2012-2013 Fellowship year:
- Two-year Fellowship at Georgetown Law as a Domestic Violence Teaching Fellow
- **PLEASE NOTE: The Domestic Violence Clinical Teaching Fellowship position for the 2012-2013 Fellowship year has been filled by a deferred applicant from last year. Please consider applying for the Domestic Violence Teaching Fellowship next year.**
- Two-year Fellowship at Georgetown Law as an International Women’s Human Rights Clinic (IWHRC) Teaching Fellow
- One-year Fellowship at the National Partnership for Women and Families
- One-year Fellowship at the National Women’s Law Center
- Two, one-year Fellowships at organizations working on Gender Rights and HIV/AIDS
All Fellowships provide an incomparable opportunity to work with leaders in the women's legal community, to gain tremendous experience promoting women's rights, and to sharpen leadership and advocacy skills through in-depth training sessions provided by the Program. Applicants should indicate whether or not they wish to be considered for Fellowships focusing on specific issues. Indicating interest in more than one issue will not jeopardize a candidate's consideration; on the contrary, doing so may facilitate the Program's ability to match the candidate with a Fellowship.
Applicants must either be a law school graduate or in their final year of law school, and must show a demonstrated commitment to advancing women's rights throughout their careers. Applications must be postmarked by the deadline, and early applications are encouraged. Fellowship selection will be conducted throughout the spring and summer. Depending on the availability of funds, approximately six applicants will be awarded Women's Law and Public Policy Fellowships, which will carry a stipend of about $39,000. The placement organizations employ the Fellows and provide standard fringe benefits.
