Howard University School of Law just launched a brand-new program, the Public Defender Incubator Program (PDIP), aimed at training the next generation of public defenders.
The goal of the program is to bring more passionate and skilled lawyers into public defense field and fight for justice where it’s needed most. The Defender Association is thrilled to support Howard in this mission and can’t wait to see these future defenders in action!
Defender Association attorneys and staff will be partnering in a variety of ways, including class presentations, and participation in mock interviews and mock trials. We’ll share more images and updates as Howard Law takes this important step toward growing the public defense field.
