Student Opportunities

There are many ways to engage with health and food law issues beyond enrolling in CHLPI’s health and food clinics and seminars, including for students outside of Harvard Law School and for students studying related disciplines. Opportunities include ones affiliated with CHLPI and ones through our partners.

Food Law & Policy Clinic Summer Internship Program

Interns are also challenged to develop creative legal and policy solutions to pressing food issues, applying their knowledge from the law school classroom to real-world situations.
