The Utah Center for Legal Inclusion (UCLI), Intermountain Health, and Kirton McConkie have collaborated to create the Utah Legal Inclusion Fellowship, providing select law students the unique opportunity for a paid summer experience. In 2025, the fellowship will be granted to one law student from either of Utah’s two law schools, the J. Reuben Clark Law School at Brigham Young University or the S.J. Quinney College of Law at the University of Utah.

The fellowship will include the following*:
● An 11-week paid summer fellowship with Kirton McConkie beginning May 2025; and
● As part of the paid Kirton McConkie fellowship, an opportunity to work directly with in-house legal counsel on Intermountain matters.

The fellowship plays a significant role in UCLI’s efforts to empower students from underrepresented communities to thrive in the legal profession by developing professional skills, exploring career options, and receiving financial compensation..

Applications will be reviewed by a committee with representatives from UCLI, Intermountain Health, and Kirton McConkie, with applications evaluated using the following criteria:

• Future potential to advance underrepresented communities and belonging in Utah’s legal profession;
• Demonstrated record of service to underrepresented communities; and
• Prior professional experience and academic record.

Top candidates advance to an interview phase involving Kirton McConkie attorneys and UCLI staff.

Complete this form by January 12, 2025 at 11:59 PM Mountain Standard Time. You may email with any questions.
