The SCBA Diversity Fellowship Program is a collaborative effort of the SCBA, participating Sacramento law firms, UC Davis School of Law, and the University of Pacific McGeorge School of Law to promote diversity in area law firms. The program offers students from underrepresented groups fellowships that help enable them to experience the work, requirements, and culture of majority law firms and develop the skills, confidence, credentials, and contacts that can help them achieve professional success.
