MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The University of Memphis Law School has been awarded a grant from a national non-profit that will lead to the creation of a clinic ready to assist pediatric victims of gun violence through the school’s combined medical and legal collaboration at Le Bonheur.
A range of related legal assistance could vary from housing relocation, domestic violence and firearm surrender matters.
The UofM’s Law School had previously established a partnership at Le Bonheur in what’s called the Medical-Legal Partnership (MLP Clinic).
The Everytown Legal Fellow, a national philanthropy comprised of litigators pursuing gun safety through the court system, is providing the grant.
