HBA 1L Diversity & Inclusion Summer Clerkship Program

Houston Bar Association

Blank Rome LLP is proud to be participating in the Houston Bar Association (“HBA”) Diversity & Inclusion Committee’s 1L Diversity & Inclusion Summer Clerkship and Mentoring Program for summer 2021.

For over 20 years, Houston law firms, corporations, and courts have supported this program by employing first year law students from historically underrepresented ethnic, racial, and LGBTQ+ groups. The program fosters the development of first year law students through practical experience, while also giving law firms, government agencies, companies, and judges first access and exposure to some of the brightest first year law students that the three Houston-area law schools have to offer.

In 2020, the program placed 38 clerks with law firms, corporate legal departments, nonprofits, and state and federal judges.
