Thank you to everyone who joined us for the closing ceremony of the 2024 HBA CIS Summer Legal Internship Program today! We were thrilled to celebrate the impressive achievements of this year's participants. A heartfelt thank you to the interns, mentors, supporters, and CIS committee members who have made a significant impact on our community's youth through Communities In Schools of Houston (CIS). 👏 We extend our gratitude to South Texas College of Law Houston and Interim Dean Jeff Rensberger for graciously hosting the event. A special thanks to Southern District of Texas U.S. Attorney Alamdar Hamdani for delivering inspiring remarks. We also want to thank CIS Committee co-chairs Anna Archer, John Meredith, and Ashley Brown for their dedicated efforts this past year. 📸 Stay tuned for photos from the event!

“Representation matters.” This is the message S.D. Tex. U.S. Attorney Alamdar Hamdani shared with students who had legal internships this summer through the Communities In Schools of Houston/Houston Bar Association internship program. He noted that while “it doesn’t matter where you come from” when speaking of being able to have a successful career, it “does matter where you came from” once you get there. This piece of wisdom about it mattering where you came from hit home with me today. I am a first-generation attorney who, like many of the students in the CIS program, experienced some hardships when I was a kid. I think that is one of the reasons it is so important to me to give back by helping out with programs like the HBA/CIS partnership. We really had a fantastic group of kids this year, and the Closing Ceremony today was the icing on the cake. Thanks to the students MCs, all of the inspiring speakers including student Sarahi Alamilla, Interim STCL Dean Jeff Rensberger, HBA President David Harrell, CIS Director Lisa Descant, CIS CEO Kathryn Medina, and, of course, Mr. Hamdani! Thanks also to South Texas College of Law Houston, and to the committee members, HBA staff, CIS staff, mentors, and sponsors, for everything you do to support these students! Finally, thanks to my co-chairs John Meredith and Ashley Brown for your great work this year. It was an honor to serve on this committee with you. I look forward to seeing the committee thrive under the leadership of Chris Agboli and Maria Pimienta next year! #givingback #lawyersgivingback #futurelawyers
