Rappaport Center for Law and Public Policy

Established through a generous gift by the Phyllis and Jerome Lyle Rappaport Foundation, the Rappaport Center for Law and Public Policy advances the mission of fostering, supporting, and galvanizing leadership in state and local public policy. The Center’s core activities include convening policy makers, thought leaders, and impacted community members in generative discussions on urgent legal and public policy challenges; inviting Senior Fellows and Visiting Professors from government, academia, and non-profit organizations to engage with students and the greater Boston legal and public service community; and providing emerging leaders with funding, experiential learning opportunities, and mentorship through its flagship summer fellowship program for law students.
