Workers' Rights Conference

The 28th Annual National Law Students Workers' Rights Conference is returning to Baltimore!

For 2025, we're happy to return to the Maritime Conference Center, right outside of Baltimore, MD! Expected to be attended by over 200 law students with over 50 presenters from across the country, the 2025 NLSWRC will bring together a community of progressive and like-minded law students, lawyers, and organizers together to explore the future of workers’ rights and workplace justice lawyering. We can't wait to see you there!
