Jobs, Pro Bono Opportunities, Fellowships, and Internships

Since 1972, the National Women's Law Center (NWLC) has expanded possibilities for women and girls in the United States. NWLC uses the law in all its forms to protect and advance the progress of women and girls at work, in school, and in virtually every aspect of their lives. NWLC takes on the issues that cut to the core of women's and girls' lives in education, employment, family economic security, and health, with special priority given to the needs of low-income women and their families.

This dynamic and growing organization is looking for talented, committed individuals to join its efforts.
