Purpose Statement:
The Latino Law Students Association (LLSA) is an organization dedicated to preparing its members for their professional roles in society and to promoting awareness of Latino interests in the legal field. The purpose of LLSA is to continue advancing the interests and welfare of its members as well as the law school community’s as a whole. In 2006, LLSA presented the Latino Law Summit to discuss such topics as immigration policy, guest worker programs, and educational, housing, and wage disparities between Latinos and non-Hispanic whites. LLSA is also now a member-chapter of the National Latino/a Law Student Association, which allows students at Moritz to interact with other Latino students and lawyers in various regions of the nation, in addition to offering students the ability to develop their leadership skills within a national network.
