Conservation Law Center Endowment Fund
Founded in 2005, CLC is the only Indiana-based nonprofit law firm dedicated to addressing some of the state’s most pressing environmental problems. We do this through public interest litigation, policy advocacy, and support for other organizations at the front line of environmental harms. CLC’s growing staff of nine full-time professionals currently includes six attorneys experienced in the practice of environmental, conservation, and land use law. CLC’s core mission is to provide pro bono representation to conservation organizations engaged in protecting clean water and natural habitat in the Great Lakes region, as well as to environmental nonprofits and community groups tackling environmental health and justice issues in Indiana.
We also are engaged in training the next generation of public interest environmental lawyers through the Conservation Law Clinic at Indiana University’s Maurer School of Law. By working on active cases under the supervision of CLC’s attorneys, law students develop essential lawyering skills needed to effectively navigate complex environmental laws and regulatory processes. The Clinic also exposes participating law students to the interplay between pervasive environmental problems and the broader socio-economic, political, and cultural contexts in which they occur. Understanding this interconnection is critical to the integrative approach we take to developing legal and non-legal strategies and policy solutions through collaboration across diverse disciplines.
