UMass National Lawyers Guild Chapter and Massachusetts National Lawyers Guild Chapter are so happy to be hosting our legal observers training. If you are interested in attending, contact [email protected]. Please send your registration forms in by Sunday, November 5th at noon. PILF Approved!
Attending the training is a great way to become more aware of the rights you hold at protests as well as play a significant role in keeping others safe. Legal Observers serve two related but distinct functions. First, their presence at protests and other political actions serves as a deterrent for police misconduct. Second, Legal Observers monitor and record instances of police misconduct.

Meet our 1L rep!
So excited to introduce our new 1L Rep. Chelsee is originally from Portland, Oregon. While living on the west cost, Chelsee had the opportunity to work at a popular coffee shop that prides itself on giving back by donating time and proceeds to local charities. A social cause that Chelsee cares most about is equal rights. That includes women’s rights, LGBTQ+ rights, disability rights, minority rights, and so forth. She hopes to help move towards a society of acceptance and inclusion, that celebrates diversities, and that eradicates discrimination. Basically, a society that is willing to lift each other up no matter our differences. Chelsee stated “I love working hands on to make a difference in my community and I believe that the National Lawyers Guild organization will allow me the opportunity to continue to do so, and this 1L class is made up of a remarkable group of people that have the desire to not just Pursue Justice but to fight injustices.”
In her free time, Chelsee also has a two year old puppy to play with and she is a huge Portland Timbers soccer fan. So excited to see what she does this year!

Meet the Secretary!
This years Secretary is JJ Sharpe. JJ also helps to run the social media accounts for the UMass NLG chapter. JJ is involved in other organizations as well such as PILF and DTP. JJ graduated from the University of Nebraska Kearney with a major in Social work and minor in Family Studies. She is extremely passionate about a lot of social justice issues but most importantly juvenile justice and reform. Previously she has interned at the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services in Child and Family services and currently is an intern at the Committee for Public Council Services- Child and Family Division in Fall River. She believes that every person especially children deserve to have their rights recognized and when the law fails to acknowledge that it’s time to change the law. That is one of the many things JJ loves about NLG is the focus on protecting every persons right and how NLG continuously is pushing for progress! She is most excited to be involved this semester to help raise awareness to key issues.
In her free time, JJ loves reading. Her perfect day consists of sitting with a good book in the middle of the woods swinging in her hammock. So excited to see what the year brings.

Meet our Treasurer!
We are very excited to introduce our dedicated treasurer, Sam Daitsman. Sam is a 2L in the JD/MPP (Education policy) program. He received his undergrad from UMass Boston in Classical studies. He has a passion for political philosophy and how we can work together to build a better tomorrow for workers. He is also a Public Interest Law Fellow along with being involved in National Lawyers Guild. In his free time, Sam enjoys a good book, discussing philosophy, or watching his beloved Green Bay Packers and New York Mets
Sam is passionate about NLG because “one of the biggest things that we need in a functioning democracy is a legal system that works for the lay person and not for corporate interests, the NLG works every day to embody that ideal, and its a great honor to be a steward for the university’s chapter.”
