#76: Let's Get Personal with Alicia Ulibarrí, Law Student at the University of New Mexico School of Law and APIL/EAJ Fellow

This episode was created in partnership with the University of New Mexico School of Law’s Association of Public Interest Law (or APIL) and New Mexico’s very own Equal Access to Justice. APIL provides funding and education related to public interest law to UNM’s law students. And EAJ supports some of the most important public interest organizations in the state, including New Mexico Legal Aid, the New Mexico Center on Law and Poverty, and DNA People’s Legal Services. 

Importantly for this episode, APIL and EAJ have teamed up to provide scholarships for students to undertake important public interest work during the summers while they’re in law school. Alicia was one of last year’s recipients of an APIL Fellowship funded by EAJ. During her fellowship, Alicia worked at the Southwest Women’s Law Center, an organization the provides free legal services to Native women experiencing domestic violence and/or intimate partner violence. 

Alicia was also recently selected to be part of the Community Governance Attorney Program, which was established by the New Mexico legislature in 2019 to provide legal services for land grant, acequia, and colonias communities. She will serve these communities while working at New Mexico Legal Aid following graduation.
