The Pro Bono Program provides students with opportunities to deliver law-related services to underrepresented community members.  Pro Bono Program staff assist students with placements in private and nonprofit law firms, legal aid groups, in-house programs and other organizations, where their pro bono work is performed under appropriate supervision. In keeping with the law school's law-in-action tradition, students develop legal and professional skills, gain practical, hands-on experience in real work environments and explore their ethical responsibility to provide pro bono service. 

Students enrolled in the J.D. or S.J.D programs who complete a minimum of 50 hours of pro bono services, and students enrolled in the L.L.M. program who complete a minimum of 20 hours of pro bono services, will be inducted into the Pro Bono Society and graduate with pro bono distinction.
