The Mitchell Hamline Native American Law Students Association (MH NALSA) is a network of primarily Native Americans who are law students offering academic and Tribal culture support services. NALSA also includes allies interested in the field of Native American law. In an era of asserting Tribal governments’ laws and jurisdiction, the membership maintains strong community relations while working toward cross-cultural understanding.
The Mitchell Hamline Native American Law Students Association chapter has a strong local connection to the Minnesota Native American Bar Association (MNABA), which sponsors CLEs and works with Tribal Nations to develop codes, rules, and procedures. NALSA also maintains a national network with chapters from other law schools, as well as Tribal Nations and Tribal individuals.
