CLEO and its programs have launched the careers of thousands such as judges, attorneys, academicians, general counsels, and politicians.  

As one of the nation’s most respected and recognized organizations supporting diversity in legal education, CLEO’s mission for the past 50 years  has been to expand opportunities for persons from traditionally under-represented racial and ethnic groups, low-income, and disadvantaged communities”and promote their successful entry into the legal profession.
