The University of Akron Reentry Clinic seeks students to work in the Clemency Project. This is one of four in-house reentry clinics staffed by volunteer law students. The Clemency Project assists low-income clients with trying to obtain a pardon from the governor of Ohio. Low-income clients who have multiple criminal convictions are often unable to obtain employment or unable to use their professional degrees. Law students interview the client and assist the client with completing the clemency application. Students also may have the opportunity to attend a hearing before the Ohio Parole Board. The clinic requires no more than one hour per week. Please contact Professor Joann Sahl, jsahl1@uakron.edu, with questions or if you are interested in volunteering in the clinic.
Dean Matt Wilson invites all interested students to attend a Town Hall Meeting on September 3rd (Wednesday).
Two brown bag sessions will be held . The first will run from 12:15-1:10 pm in Room 151, and the other will run from 5:30-6:25 pm in Room 165. (Additional town hall meetings will be held throughout the year.)
Dean Wilson welcomes your questions, comments, and feedback on any topic related to the School of Law. If you cannot attend either one of these sessions, but have a question or comment for the Dean, he encourages you to contact him in person or via e-mail at mjwilson@uakron.edu
