On Saturday October 10, Micah Ludecke, Hamline law school student member announced the launch of the NLG-MN chapter Mentorship program.  The program will pair interested law students and new attorneys with experienced attorneys and legal workers in order to support and foster the practice of progressive lawyering.  Please see the call to mentorship below. 

Hello, future mentor!

Attached are the cover letter and application form to apply to be a mentor.

Remember: all practicing and non-practicing attorneys and legal workers of Minnesota's progressive law community are eligible to be mentors: mentors do not need to be currently active NLG members.

PLEASE help give the brand new NLG MN Mentorship Program a strong start by sending in your mentor application as soon as possible, and by encouraging your friends and colleagues to volunteer, as well. The wider the range of mentors, the better the matches will be.
Remember: volunteering as a mentor is a GREAT way to share your knowledge and experience, as well as an opportunity to find volunteers and interns! Best of all, the time commitment is up to you!

The application deadline for 2009 is 10pm on October 23rd.

Many thanks in advance!
