Shaping Justice is a conference that aims to inspire students and practitioners to transform the law in order to provide equal justice to all.  This inaugural conference is being held to honor the Mortimer Caplin Public Service Center’s twentieth anniversary.  Participants will hear about cutting-edge issues and learn public interest lawyering skills from attorneys working with people who face a formidable path to justice.  Join us on February 3-4, 2017 to collaborate on ways to adapt the legal system to mend the injustices of today’s world.
