JusticeCorps Graduate Fellows commit to a Full-Time AmeriCorps term—1,700 hours served over 12 months, 5 days a week—and receive a number of benefits in exchange. Fellows may lead legal education workshops for the public and all Fellows provide direct one-on-one service to litigants seeking to represent themselves in court. In addition to providing self-represented litigants with information about procedures, options, and referrals to appropriate services, Fellows take a leadership role, and are mentors for the Legal Access Interns with whom they serve. JusticeCorps Fellows must be college graduates but do not have to be affiliated with a JusticeCorps partner campus.
Minimum Eligibility: In addition to meeting AmeriCorps eligibility requirements, Fellowship applicants must have received an undergraduate degree by August 10, 2025. Fellows are not required to be affiliated with a JusticeCorps partner campus.
Service Commitment: Fellows must complete 1,700 hours of service beginning August 2025 and concluding in August 2026.
