The UCLA Law COVID-19 Behind Bars Data Project, in collaboration with the Bronx Defenders, Columbia Law School’s Center for Institutional and Social Change and Zealous, has launched a new electronic database of COVID-19-related materials designed to help lawyers, advocates, researchers, journalists and others interested in challenging, remedying, or drawing attention to the grave risk that COVID-19 poses to individuals who are detained.

Two recent UCLA School of Law graduates have gained paid post-bar fellowships at the Children’s Law Center of California, thanks to a grant from the UCLA Pritzker Center for Strengthening Children and Families.

Nicole Englanoff-Herzberg and Kaveh Landsverk, both members of the UCLA Law Class of 2020, will advocate for the rights of children, teens and families in the foster care system at the venerable Los Angeles public interest agency.
