WE ARE PROUD OF YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS!
National Bar Association Crump Law Camp
Established in the summer
of 2001, the National Bar Association Crump Law Camp (Law Camp) encourages
students of color to pursue a career in law. Named for John Crump, the Executive
Director of the National Bar Association, the Law Camp provides 9th through 11th
graders with a comprehensive introduction to the American judicial system. The
Law Camp seeks to decrease the disparity between white attorneys and those of
color by intervening early in the students’ academic careers.

Law Camp participants are given the opportunity to interact with attorneys, law professors, and guest lecturers as an emphasis is placed on academic preparedness and social readiness for law school. Campers compete in mock trial competitions, attend classes, and take field trips to historical sites and courthouses during a two-week period. Moreover, participants gain exposure to a college setting by residing on the Howard University campus. Tuition to the Law Camp is modest, and a sliding scale is used. Nevertheless, the majority of the campers come from low to moderate income families unable to afford tuition.
