The ELPC is a full-year clinic offered for 10 credits (2 credits

in their last 2 years of law school. Students enrolled in the ELPC
work on a variety of local, state, and/or federal environmental,
energy, and land use legal matters raising today’s most pressing
issues. The clinic represents and advises non-profits, citizen
groups, and governmental agencies in environmental legal and
regulatory matters. Students also provide litigation support,
analysis and education on various environmental legislative and
regulatory initiatives. A substantial focus of the ELPC’s work is
on supporting underserved communities and advocating on matters
concerning land conservation, sand mining, and water resource
protection in Southeastern Massachusetts.
The ideal candidate will be a self-motivated individual who can
help shape the Clinic docket and enrich the program by developing
