Law and Organizing Academy
A part of The Action Lab’s deep and ongoing work to help nurture the next generation of innovative movement lawyers, our annual Law & Organizing Academy hosted 40 rising second- and third-year law students and introduced them to critical organizing and Law and Political Economy frameworks, with a focus on housing justice, decarceration, and worker power. The Law and Organizing Academy is a partnership between the Action Lab, the Law & Political Economy Project and the NYU Initiative for Community Power, along with a range of frontline social justice organizations, such as the Center for Constitutional Rights, VOCAL, Make the Road NY and NJ, TakeRoot Justice and the Safety Net Project.
