Fall 2011 Legal Internship

Labels: ,

We are currently seeking Farsi-speaking legal interns for our fall internship program. ORAM is a California-based non-profit organization with a mission to advocate for refugees fleeing sexual or gender based persecution. ORAM conducts international education and advocacy on behalf of these highly vulnerable individuals. It also provides legal counseling and representation as these persons struggle to find security and safe haven. We work with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), other non-governmental organizations and community-based groups in the U.S. and abroad to achieve our mission.

ORAM has an exceptional internship program, providing educational opportunities for students interested in international refugee and human rights law. This fall ORAM is looking for legal interns who are fluent in Farsi for multiple projects involving legal research and writing on issues pertinent to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex asylum seekers and refugees, as well as opportunities for working on direct representation cases. Interns will have the opportunity to work with clients that have fled Iran and are seeking refugee status in Turkey. The internship will be located in our San Francisco office.
