Who We Are
Our practice centers the three key recognizable components of movement lawyering, integrated advocacy, accountability towards social movements, and willingness to address the root causes of structural injustice.
We work in long-term partnerships with base-building organizations creating strategies for local and regional school transformation and decriminalization of families and youth. C4LL disrupts the historical harms of the legal profession through movement lawyering communities of practice, inviting shared accountability towards the movement to end the school to prison pipeline.
