CLEO, Inc. is a nonprofit organization that provides pipeline access and services to underrepresented students who want to attend law school. We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to pursue a legal education, regardless of their background or financial resources. With the recent U.S. Supreme Court affirmative action decisions our work is just as important now as it was when we were founded back in 1968.
Every year, we help hundreds of underrepresented students get on the path to law school, support them through their undergraduate journey, and prepare them to be accepted to law school. We partner with law schools across the country and provide students with the opportunity to interact with law school Deans, Admissions Faculty, and current law school students, as well as, active attorneys and professionals in the legal field.
CLEO alumni students are prepared properly for their 1L year of school, and beyond, with programs like PLSI (Pre-Law Summer Institute), AIE (Attitude Is Essential), Bar Prep Mentors program, and the CLEO Connection Alumni Network.
Please donate today. Every donation makes a difference. Thank you for your support.
I am writing to extend my sincere gratitude for the invitation to the recent EDGE Honors Reception & Awards Program hosted by the Council on Legal Education Opportunity, Inc. (CLEO). It was a privilege to attend (virtually) such an outstanding event that not only celebrated remarkable achievements but also reaffirmed our collective dedication to fostering Education, Diversity, and Greater Equality within the legal profession.
The event was a resounding success, showcasing the impressive strides being made towards inclusivity and representation in our field. It was an inspiring and affirming experience to witness the recognition of individuals whose contributions have significantly advanced these noble goals. In recognition of the vital work that CLEO undertakes, […] I have donated money and made a financial contribution to support CLEO’s ongoing initiatives.
It is my hope that this donation will aid in the continuation and expansion of the organization’s critical efforts to uplift aspiring legal professionals from diverse backgrounds.
Regards,
William
