Thank you to all mentors and mentees that attended the 2023 JD Mentors Program Kickoff Reception on November 9, 2023. Special thanks to Marshall Gerstein for hosting and sponsoring the reception for a second year. Thank you to the Chairs Matthew Jorge – Special Counsel at Marshall Gerstein and Phil Acevedo – Associate at Croke Fairchild Duarte & Beres for your work to ensure the program and reception was a great success.
As mentioned by President Dora Cornelio, the program got its name not only because of the Juris doctor degree but it stands for Juntos Destacando, which means advancing together. We hope that these relationships help the law and undergraduate students succeed in their journey applying to law school, academically and professionally. Please direct any questions to jdmentors@hlai.org.
