Wilf Impact Public Interest Scholars Program

,The Wilf Impact Public Interest Scholars Program educates and trains a new generation of social justice leaders through substantial renewable, full-tuition scholarships, summer internship funding, and postgraduate fellowships.

Ten students are named Wilf Impact Scholars each year as they work closely with faculty leaders on our nation's biggest challenges: civil rights, immigration rights, racial justice, educational equity, housing rights, and access to justice for children and families. Wilf Impact Scholars collaborate with external social justice organizations that partner with NYLS.

Made possible by a gift from the Wilf Family Foundation, which also established the Wilf Impact Center for Public Interest Law, the Wilf Impact Scholars Program adds to our community of diverse, talented public interest leaders.
