Welcome to the Yale Undergraduate Legal Aid Association
OUR MISSION
The Yale Undergraduate Legal Aid Association (YULAA) is a Yale College student organization which broadly speaking promotes human rights through legal empowerment on and off campus. Members work with various legal aid organizations and advocacy groups in the greater New Haven area throughout the semester. YULAA also invites speakers to campus who offer direct, practical insight into the criminal justice system, the immigration crisis, refugee resettlement, among other topics.
LEGAL EMPOWERMENT
YULAA partners with organizations in the New Haven area to connect passionate students with legal aid projects. See Our Work for more information.
EDUCATION
In addition to direct services, YULAA hosts a variety of educational panels and discussions to expose current undergraduates to practitioners of law.
SOCIAL COHESION
YULAA is committed to creating a strong and unified community both within and outside of Yale. We do this boy prioritizing volunteer engagement with one another through movie nights, discussions, dinners, etc.
