Law school clinical programs can partner with community organizations and leverage other resources within the university that benefit our students and the communities we serve. Suffolk Law’s Accelerator Practice students represent clients in housing discrimination claims in partnership with the Housing Discrimination Testing Program (“HDTP”). HDTP formed a grant-funded alliance with other fair housing organizations, where students and legal services practitioners work together in the fight for fair housing. Students in Suffolk’s Legal Innovation and Technology Lab are developing a housing search tool for clients while students at the business school collaborate on branding and a state-wide educational campaign.
