Equal Justice Works (formerly The National Association for Public Interest Law) was founded in 1986 by law students dedicated to surmounting barriers to equal justice that affect millions of low-income individuals and families. Today, Equal Justice Works leads the country in organizing, training and supporting public service-minded law students, and in creating summer and postgraduate public interest jobs. Through more than eight million dollars in annual donations from law firms, corporations, foundations, individuals, and the federal government, Equal Justice Works funds law students and lawyers in programs that bring justice to millions of low-income persons and families.
