Word on the street is that this might be the last year of the Battered Women's Rights Clinic.
Some say its because of low enrollment over the last couple of years, others attribute it to the creation of the CED clinic (in that we have more programs than students to fill it).
We hope that this is not true or that if it is, CUNY continues to use Professors Arias, Garcia and Lee in ways that allow future students to learn from them.
This would be a sad loss for the women who could be served by the clinic and for the school. The BWRC is a unique clinic in that students collaborate with social work students in providing comprehensive services to their clients. And the professors who lead the clinic are amazing.
