UM: Law Clinic

The National Law Journal reports on a $300,000 grant that the UM Law School received to establish a human trafficking clinic at a law school in north central Mexico. The grant is funded by the U.S. Department of State and will fund the program for two years. The university also offers a clinic in Ann Arbor, but the director of the program, Bridgette Carr, admits its limitations: “The part that I’m excited about is that here in the U.S., we can do a lot as far as assisting prosecutors and victims of trafficking. What we can’t work on as much is prevention, because we’re sitting here in Ann Arbor. The goal is to not have clients.” [Source]
