OPD offers social work students a variety of opportunities, including clinically-based and legislative advocacy field placements. Social work field placements are for undergraduate and graduate students already in an accredited social work program. |

| Social work field placement interns work with attorneys, law clerks, investigators and paralegals as part of a “holistic defense” which seeks to assess the cultural, mental health, employment, educational, and social needs of indigent clients charged with criminal offenses.
