Howard Law Christian Legal Society

The Christian Legal Society at Howard University School of Law is a vibrant student organization dedicated to integrating faith and legal practice within the Washington, DC legal community. Operating from Room 223 in Holy Cross Hall on Howard's campus, this chapter provides non-denominational fellowship and professional development opportunities for law students seeking to align their legal careers with Christian values and principles.

The organization serves as a bridge between academic legal training and faith-based community service. Members engage in collaborative study, meaningful fellowship, and service-oriented projects that extend beyond the classroom into the larger Washington, DC community. The group is committed to developing lawyers who understand that their professional responsibilities encompass a broader calling to serve others with integrity and compassion.

Howard University School of Law, which houses this organization, is accredited by the American Bar Association and maintains a distinguished tradition of preparing legal professionals who are equipped to advocate for the rights of all individuals, particularly African-Americans and other underrepresented populations. The law school's commitment to excellence in legal education provides the foundation upon which the Christian Legal Society operates.

Led by dedicated student leaders including President Reginald Whitaker and a committed board, the Christian Legal Society welcomes all interested law students and community members to participate in its activities. The organization emphasizes the importance of bearing fruit through Christian witness while developing the highest capabilities and skills as future legal professionals. Through regular meetings, study sessions, and community outreach initiatives, the Christian Legal Society creates a supportive environment where faith and legal excellence intersect.
