Law Student Interns

Northwest Immigrant Rights Project

Remote Positions

Northwest Immigrant Rights Project is seeking law student applications for full-time summer internship positions in its Tacoma office. Northwest Immigrant Rights Project (NWIRP) is the only nonprofit organization providing comprehensive immigration legal services to immigrants with low income across Washington State. NWIRP promotes justice by defending and advancing the rights of immigrants through direct legal services, systemic advocacy, and community education. NWIRP’s Tacoma office provides legal services to the up to 1,575 immigrants detained at the Northwest Detention Center (NWDC), 85% of whom are unrepresented. At NWIRP’s Tacoma office, law students will gain exposure to immigration law and have the opportunity to improve their legal writing and research skills in a fast-paced environment while working with detained and non- detained clients. Legal interns will be asked to commit at least 25-35 hours per week for these virtual internships.

 

The internships are unpaid, but NWIRP will work with applicants to secure outside funding or academic credit when possible.

All applications will be considered on a rolling basis, until the positions are filled.
