Next semester, the Transactional Law Clinic\u2019s Community Enterprise Project (CEP) will double in size, with six students working out of the Legal Services Center. Like this semester, CEP students will split their time between individual, direct client representation and large, collaborative projects. CEP students Josh Wackerly and Brett Heeger \u201814 have decided to continue with CEP into the spring semester. \u201cFor me,\u201d states Heeger, \u201cwhat makes CEP so exciting is the chance we have to think about community needs from multiple angles.\u201d He adds, \u201cMany HLS students are interested in doing pro bono work after graduation, including fellowships like Equal Justice Works and Skadden or pro bono practices within law firms. Project development skills learned through CEP offer direct experience that can be applied to designing or helping to expand pro bono practices \u2013 experience that is rarely available, especially in the transactional law realm.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite its rapid growth, CEP will continue to focus its work in the community of Jamaica Plain and surrounding neighborhoods. \u201cIt\u2019s been immensely rewarding to immerse myself in the communities in which I\u2019m working,\u201d Heeger continues. \u201cI\u2019ve been invited to concerts where my clients are performing, eaten food that my clients have produced, and bumped into community leaders on the street outside the Legal Services Center. People have been incredibly welcoming and enormously grateful as CEP has attempted to find opportunities to expand and support otherwise underserved needs.\u201d<\/p>\n
