Yale Law School's Worker and Immigrants Rights Advocacy Clinic is Changing Lives

GRoW supports the clinic that empowers law students to represent immigrants, low-wage employees, labor unions, and grassroots organizations in important cases.

The Worker and Immigrant Rights Advocacy Clinic (WIRAC) offers law students the opportunity to gain hands-on experience working on high-profile, often groundbreaking civil rights, criminal justice, and social justice cases involving underrepresented or marginalized individuals and groups. WIRAC is one of 30 clinical classes offered through Yale Law School, and students can participate as soon as the spring of their first year. A practice-oriented examination of advocacy for the voiceless, the seminar also examines community and social-justice lawyering.
