Alliance of Formerly Incarcerated & System-Involved Students

Mission: The Alliance of Formerly Incarcerated & System-Involved Students (AFISIS) is a group rooted in abolitionist values advocating to create pathways for formerly incarcerated and system-involved students to enter law school and the legal profession. AFISIS is composed of students who are formerly incarcerated/system-involved and allies. AFISIS works to dismantle the barriers to the legal profession for students with criminal records by supporting students through the law school application process and navigating barriers including questions about past system involvement in the law school character & fitness application process.
