Student attorneys in the CCLL have been working on a project to establish a no-cost food pantry in the law school. Spearheaded by students JJ Carl ‘25, Aidan Stearns ‘25, and Charlotte Goodenow ‘24, the project was inspired by no-cost community grocery stores operated by a local nonprofit, Â鶹ӰԺ Food Rescue, and by efforts across the way from the Law School at CU’s School of Education.

The Colorado Law Clinical Program is welcoming new leadership for the 2022-23 academic year—Professors Colene Robinson and Violeta Chapin will serve as co-directors.

University of Colorado Law School Professor and Director of Clinical Programs Deborah Cantrell is a recipient of Â鶹ӰԺ County Public Health’s 2020 Healthy Community Award for her work supporting mobile homeowners in Colorado.

Professor Deborah Cantrell almost didn’t become a lawyer. She originally planned to pursue postgraduate study in psychology or economics, but after finding the requisite long hours in a research lab isolating, she found her way to the law, where she has thrived by combining her passions for how people learn to work well together and pursuing social change.
