With the generous partnership of law firms, legal organizations, corporations and individuals across North Carolina, the NCBF is proud to announce the creation of the NCBF Open Door Fund. The Open Door Fund supports the Open Door Fellowship program, a unique, competitive opportunity for first-year North Carolina law students from diverse backgrounds to gain inroads to the profession. NCBF Open Door Fellows gain valuable, hands-on legal experience while widening their professional networks to “open doors” and prepare them for the next steps in their legal careers.
