To better serve students, Student Liaisons provide direct insights into student needs and interests that help shape AEF's programs. This year, AEF is looking to fill at least three (3) positions across various law schools in the DMV.  Prior or current involvement with APALSA is highly preferred. 

The deadline to apply is Sunday, October 20, 2024 at 11:59PM ET.
