Welcome to the Center for Global Justice

“

“Working for the Center has allowed me to use my developing legal skills for the purpose God called me to law school in the first place: serving those in need. The Center helps real people in real situations, facing injustices unlike anything we can fathom. The Lord loves justice, and he loves it for everyone made in his image, around the globe.”

“My time at the Center for Global Justice has been one of the most formative experiences of my legal education and has directly shaped the direction of my career. Through the Human Trafficking Clinic, I gained practical experience in survivor-centered advocacy, including client intake, case research, and support for Virginia’s vacatur efforts. The CGJ has challenged me to approach even the most difficult cases with humility, prayer, a deeper reliance on God for wisdom and strength, and reinforced my conviction that my legal training is a gift to be used in service of others, not just career advancement.”

“Being part of the CGJ allowed me to meet and connect with other legal professionals outside the U.S. Through my internship, I met members of the European Parliament and even interviewed attorneys working with NGOs in other countries. Being able to have these conversations has expanded my knowledge of the international laws governing human rights issues worldwide.”

“As a student who felt called to attend Law School in order to be equipped to defend human rights, I am especially grateful for the opportunities the Center for Global Justice provides for students. Because of the Center and its mission, I have had the opportunity to live out my calling to speak for the oppressed while still a law student and further my understanding of what it means to learn, lead, and do justice.”

“I was directly involved in helping the Judiciary establish mobile courts and hearings in Kamwenge, Uganda, for child defilement cases. It was only through what I learned through the Center that I knew what to do.”
