The Christian Legal Society (CLS) is a nationwide Christian fellowship committed to acting justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with their God. Founded in 1961, CLS defends religious liberties for all Americans in the legislatures and the courts and serves those most in need in our society through Christian Legal Aid. They are organized in more than 1100 cities into attorney chapters and law student chapters across the United States. Four students committed to creating a faith based fellowship on campus founded the CLS chapter at SJCL in September 2017.
