Project Description

Project Description

***THIS PROJECT IS FOR FALL 2025 1L MSU COLLEGE OF LAW STUDENTS ONLY***

Access to Justice issues will be discussed at all sites.  Some sites require participants to pass through security protocols, including metal detectors.  If you are visiting one of the courts, you may need to remove belts, jewelry/watches, cell phones, and bags may be searched.  Travel lightly to promote ease of entry.  

We recommend all participants wear their Foundations Week Polo shirts and business casual pants (not shorts nor jeans). 

All participants must check-in at the welcome event held in the MSU Union Ballroom  All transportation will depart from the MSU Union Ballroom and you must check in to receive your confirmed site, bus number and table assignment.

About ACLU/Salus Center

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is an American nonprofit human rights organization founded in 1920. The ACLU works through litigation and lobbying.  ACLU affiliates are active in all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico. The ACLU provides legal assistance in cases where it considers civil liberties at risk. Legal support from the ACLU can take the form of direct legal representation or preparation of amicus curiae briefs expressing legal arguments when another law firm is already providing representation. https://aclu.org

Founded in 2017, the Salus Center serves Lansing’s LGBTQIA+ communities as a gathering space and information hub. We advocate for the rights of our community members by honoring and affirming the interconnectedness of oppression.
