Student Work

Students enrolled in the Health Law and Policy Clinic of the Center for Health Law and Policy Innovation participate in a broad range of national and state law and policy initiatives aimed at increasing access to high-quality, comprehensive health care for poor and low-income individuals and families—especially those living with chronic medical conditions.

Through the clinic, students work to develop, inform, and implement cutting-edge health policy and program recommendations at the state and national levels. Student projects involve:

 
  • informing implementation of the Affordable Care Act at the federal and state levels through research, analysis, and technical assistance to both government officials and community-based partners
  • providing law and policy analysis to national and state coalitions advocating to protect and promote health and public health programs; and
  • investigating best practices at the state and local level and supporting new initiatives aimed at increasing access to care, treatment and service programs specifically designed to serve vulnerable populations.
 
   

While the primary offices of the Center for Health Law and Policy Innovation (CHLPI) are at the Legal Services Center in Jamaica Plain, CHLPI has an on-campus office. Given the national scope of much of our work, students can often meet with clinic staff and conduct their work on-campus. There are also frequently opportunities to travel both within and outside Massachusetts to work with our state-based community partners.
