The Trina Grillo Law Retreat provides a unique opportunity for public interest and social justice-oriented law students, faculty, and practitioners to exchange viewpoints, explore career opportunities, and formulate strategies for social justice.
The retreat honors the memory of Trina Grillo (1948-96), who was a source of inspiration to many law students, professions, and public interest and social justice lawyers. Brandt Goldstein will serve as the keynote speaker on Friday evening. Mr. Goldstein is the author of Storming the Court (Scribner 2005), a true story of the law students and human rights advocates who filed suit against the first Bush and Clinton administrations to free HIV-positive Haitian refugees detained at Guantanamo Bay during the 1990s.
