Future Lawyers Camp

An annual camp held in St. Louis, MO and Kansas City, MO for children ages 9-18. The purpose is to stimulate interest in criminal law, social justice, and African American history. The legal profession desperately needs more black attorneys as less than %1 of all lawyers are African American. We hope to help that cause.

In 2016 Natasha along with social justice activist and educator Kayla Thompson, started the FLC. Our mission was to address the lack of black attorneys despite the racial disparities that African Americans face in the criminal justice system. Our campers have had family members in jail, killed by police, or had first-hand negative experiences with the police. We had a diverse group of students dealing with poverty, foster care, family issues, and discrimination at an early age.  The camp was of no charge to the kids as it was sponsored by the Lincoln University Urban Impact Center.
