The National Bar Association is seeking applicants for the Crump Law Camp
which was established for students entering the 9th through 11th grades and
between the ages of 14 and 17 to introduce them to the judicial system.  The goal
of the NBA camp is to encourage young people at an early age to become
lawyers and seek legal careers in the future.  By 2050 more than half of the
people in this country will be of color. More than 90% of the nation’s lawyers are
white, as are more than 80% of the students enrolled in law school. Yet more
than 30% of the United States is comprised of people of color. The NBA is
seeking applicants to attend this camp from every ethnic group and its selection
process is non-discriminatory.  

The first inaugural two week camp was held during the summer at Howard
University School of Law through a grant by the Ford Motor Company Fund in
2001.  Campers were and will be housed on the Howard University campus and
live in a protected camp environment. Open enrollment is available to students
across the country but emphasis will be on enabling students from low income
families to attend.  Tuition for the camp will vary depending upon family income.  
The tuition covers transportation to and from Washington , D.C. ; housing; meals;
educational materials; and expenses for field trips. The camp provides students
with an exciting academic and social agenda in the Washington , D. C. area. The
competitive highlight of the camp is the Evett L. Simmons Mock Trial
Competition. The four winners of this competition are invited to the NBA’s Annual
Convention.      Camp begins July 11, 2010.  Applications are available on the NBA
website is www.Nationalbar.org and are to be mailed to the following address:      
National Bar Association Crump Law Camp   P.O. Box 1048   Washington, D.C.
