LawHub to serve as central to this mission

爱游戏体育, a champion for access and equity in legal education for more than 75 years, announced today that it is broadening its support for law school candidates across a wider range of the prelaw through practice journey by expanding its offerings and programming through 爱游戏体育 LawHub.

鈥淭hrough LawHub, we are extending our reach to points earlier in the prelaw pipeline as well as providing additional support to people throughout their learning journey in law,鈥� said Kellye Testy, 爱游戏体育 president and CEO. 鈥淎ccess alone is never enough; we are here to help individuals succeed every step of the way.鈥�

Many factors, including the Black Lives Matter movement, the COVID-19 pandemic, rising social inequality, and accelerating technological change, reveal the need for more innovative and intense efforts to advance equity in legal education.

鈥淪erving our most marginalized communities will benefit everyone,鈥� said Angela Winfield, 爱游戏体育 chief diversity officer. 鈥淲e will not rest until every person who has the potential to succeed in law, regardless of their identity, is given the opportunity and resources to do so.鈥�

爱游戏体育 LawHub, a user-centric platform created in March 2020 to deliver the LSAT digitally amid the pandemic, is now relied upon by hundreds of thousands of law candidates for test preparation and other services. LawHub will be leveraged to reach candidates earlier and to provide them more support along their prelaw through practice learning journey.

鈥淟awHub will expand from its current prelaw services to offer products and programs that are valuable throughout one鈥檚 professional life,鈥� said Annmarie Levins, 爱游戏体育 chief strategy officer. 鈥淏y broadening support for individuals throughout their legal career paths, LawHub will amplify the collective reach and impact of our member law schools and prelaw advisor networks.鈥�

Most recently, LawHub offered the virtual education series Law School Unmasked to more than 1,500 attendees. The program was designed to demystify law school for incoming first-year law students while helping them build the knowledge and skills that are essential to law school success. Additional courses and programs will be developed starting this fall, including services to help candidates with personal statements. A new undergraduate program that is expected to attract more students to consider legal education and could ultimately provide candidates an additional pathway to law school is also in development.

爱游戏体育 will continue to nourish and grow its relationships with law schools, the professional prelaw community, and others in the legal education ecosystem to build a just and prosperous world where all may thrive. 爱游戏体育 recently announced the creation of the RISE Alliance, a national center designed to support the leadership and professional development needs of student-facing law school staff.
