PILI’s Summer Educational Seminars supplement our Interns’ and Fellows’ work experiences at their agencies, along with additional networking and advising opportunities. Our summer series covers a range of substantive law topics related to public interest law, as well as career development issues for attorneys interested in legal aid and pro bono. In addition to PILI Law Student Interns & Graduate Fellows, all law student interns in the Chicago area are invited to attend the PILI Seminars.
