Advocates Society of Polish-American Attorneys Helps Aspiring Students

The first vice president of the Advocates Society of Polish-American Attorneys, Jonathan Clark Green, is a long-time participant in Chicago’s legal scene and a respected member of several community organizations. He is slated to be sworn in as president of the Society in 2020 and is expected to continue his record of proven leadership.

Through its Advocates Society Scholarship Foundation, the Advocates Society helps pave the way for aspiring law students that have the academic drive but lack the financial basis for their studies. Every year students are selected by a committee to become scholarship recipients.

The scholarships are mostly reserved for students who are enrolled full-time at accredited institutions and have Polish heritage. Through this channel, the Society’s Scholarship Fund helps to encourage future generations of Polish-American students to pursue a career in law and to continue to create an environment conducive to the growth and acceptance of the Polish-American community at large.
