The law center’s programs are designed to advance its core belief:  that the pursuit of justice is one of the central foundations for the development of human dignity, achievement and peace.

To this end, the law center strives to make justice accessible to underrepresented New Yorkers, organizes attorneys to volunteer to undertake pro bono representation and creates a community of pre-law undergraduate students who are committed to the pursuit of law and the advancement of justice for all members of American society.
