Future Black Lawyers Institute

Future Black Lawyers Institute We fill the gap between education system & the court system. Creating a new pipeline to the state bar that makes the school-to-prison pipeline obsolete.

We are a 501(c)3 organization committed to securing a future for Black children and families. With Missouri cutting $140 million from our public schools, there are major gaps in education. Economic violence, the school-to-prison pipeline, and racial discrimination contribute to police brutality and mass incarceration. Our work is preventative. The Future Lawyers Camp provides ongoing mentorship af

ter our week-long camp to ensure that our kids do not slip through the cracks. Many of our students are victims of poverty, the foster care system, have experienced homelessness, or have parents that are incarcerated. We have a proven curriculum with pre and post tests that show the impact of our work. After the full mock trial, students have a graduation and receive ongoing mentorship until they pass the bar
