John Paul Stevens Foundation names four SULC students as 2023 John Paul Stevens Foundation Public Interest Fellows
The John Paul Stevens Foundation has named four Southern University Law Center (SULC) students as 2023 John Paul Stevens Foundation Public Interest Fellows.
Law Center students RayVon Addison, Gamoni Fallings, Kianna McKinney, and Nathan Munsell are four of the 159 Fellows from across 38 law schools across the United States selected for the Justice John Paul Stevens Public Interest Fellowship Program.
“The Justice John Paul Stevens Public Interest Fellowship has created an opportunity for me to advance my experience in public interest, an area where I have notable interest,” said Nathan Munsell, third-year Law Center student. “Because of financial restrictions associated with serving in public interest, I would not have had this opportunity but for the JJPS Fellowship.”
In honor of Justice Stevens’ retirement from the U.S. Supreme Court, a group of his former law clerks established the Foundation in 2010. An independent nonprofit organization based in San Francisco; the Foundation provides a formal home for the Justice John Paul Stevens Public Interest Fellowship Program.
The Foundation is dedicated to promoting public interest and social justice values in the next generation of American lawyers. Through this program, the Foundation supports law students who spend the summer working in unpaid public interest law internships.
The Fellowship Program reflects Justice Stevens’ deep belief that a dynamic and effective justice system depends on a cadre of trained and committed lawyers committed to public interest work.
