TRIBAL PUBLIC DEFENDER SUPPORT
The Native American Law Center (NALC) is a resource for tribal public defender agencies
providing consultation on specific legal issues and the development of materials
for emerging tribal defender agencies and practitioners. The Center utilizes student
researchers to maximize benefits to tribes. This also provides a real-world experience
to students interested in working with tribes following graduation. NALC is developing
video podcasts of trial advocacy trainings for tribal public defenders which can
be used for training for attorneys and lay advocates serving as defenders in tribal
courts.
