The event will also include time for Q&A, allowing students to engage directly with our distinguished guests.

    EmPOWERed for Public Interest

    This gathering is a welcome-back space for the new semester and an opportunity to reconnect, reflect on the past semester, and set intentions and goals for the months ahead. Together, we will engage in conversation, share experiences, and build community rooted in mutual support and encouragement.

    EPI is designed for students whose lived experiences intersect with the legal systems they aspire to challenge in their careers. For instance, students who have themselves or had family members become entangled in the criminal legal system and are interested in public defense work; immigrant students or students who are the children or family members of immigrants seeking to challenge the immigration system; and low-income students seeking to challenge intersecting laws and policies that further marginalize poor people, such as predatory lending, cash bail, and other structural barriers.

    These lunches offer a supportive, confidential space for dialogue, reflection, mentorship, and resource-sharing. Whether you are looking to process the last semester, clarify your goals, or simply be in community with others who share similar commitments, you are welcome here.

    We look forward to starting the semester together and lifting one another up.

    Please RSVP by noon on Monday, January 27, 2026.

    2026 Capital Mitigation Skills Workshop

    The Sixteenth Capital Mitigation Skills Workshop, which began in 2012, consists of a combination of lectures and interactive exercises designed to develop the basic skills required in the development of mitigation evidence in death penalty cases. Utilizing a case hypothetical, participants will brainstorm about potential mitigation themes and identify “red flags” requiring investigation. Life-history records will also be reviewed to identify these mitigation themes, hypotheses, questions, and investigative follow-up. Interviewing exercises in small groups will cover a variety of areas, including trauma, the signs and symptoms of mental disorders, and cognitive impairments and adaptive deficits. Participants will be asked to interview a variety of different witnesses, including the client and to draft a declaration. The seminar will also emphasize the importance of case organization and provide a sample of a basic mitigation tool kit (including genograms and chronologies).
