The NAACP Legal Defense Fund (LDF) offers the Marshall-Motley Scholars Program (MMSP) to invest in populating, developing, and enriching the field of civil rights lawyers committed to racial justice. The program is for incoming law students pursuing a traditional 3-year law degree who intend to pursue a career in Civil Rights Law and are committed to racial justice. The Fellows program offers a full funding award for law school (JD) to alleviate the debt burden that can prevent future lawyers from pursuing a career in racial justice; summer internships at LDF and other national civil rights organizations; and a two-year postgraduate fellowship at a national, regional, or local civil rights organization with a racial justice law practice in the South.
