About Resolution Project At Resolution Project, we see the spark of passion in young people. We work with them to build it into a lifetime of impact. People do not need decades of experience before they can start making a difference in the world. Especially while young, they have the energy, idealism, and ambition to address complex challenges—today. But they need a community that invests and believes in their leadership. Resolution provides this support to young innovators around the world so they can break barriers and ignite meaningful change. The Resolution Fellowship is the core of our work. To become a Resolution Fellow, young people first compete in our Social Venture Challenge (SVC), pitching ideas for social enterprises in their communities. Those who are selected become Fellows, receiving seed funding and lifelong support. Resolution is there, even if they evolve or pivot from their original ideas, with global resources, mentorship, expertise, and community, along with a growing network of local partners. These components come together to form a proven model that identifies promising young leaders, launches their first ventures, and sticks with them as they grow. The Guide program is our premiere volunteer opportunity. Guides, typically early to mid-level professionals, serve as a virtual mentor to one or more of our Fellow teams—acting as coaches, advisors and sounding boards during the launch and implementation of our Fellows’ social ventures. In addition to helping our Fellows navigate through the challenges of launching social ventures, Guides fully embody our mission by supporting the personal and professional development of our young leaders. Since our beginning in 2008, Resolution Project has launched and supported the growth of over 600 Fellows, working across six continents and in over 80 countries. Altogether, our Fellows have impacted the lives of more than 6 million people around the globe. Through Resolution Project, young leaders receive unmatched guidance and wisdom from a team of partners, volunteers, and innovative peers around the globe.

About Resolution Project
At Resolution Project, we see the spark of passion in young people. We work with them to build it into a lifetime of impact. People do not need decades of experience before they can start making a difference in the world. Especially while young, they have the energy, idealism, and ambition to address complex challenges—today. But they need a community that invests and believes in their leadership. Resolution provides this support to young innovators around the world so they can break barriers and ignite meaningful change. The Resolution Fellowship is the core of our work. To become a Resolution Fellow, young people first compete in our Social Venture Challenge (SVC), pitching ideas for social enterprises in their communities. Those who are selected become Fellows, receiving seed funding and lifelong support. Resolution is there, even if they evolve or pivot from their original ideas, with global resources, mentorship, expertise, and community, along with a growing network of local partners. These components come together to form a proven model that identifies promising young leaders, launches their first ventures, and sticks with them as they grow. Since our beginning in 2008, Resolution Project has launched and supported the growth of over 600 Fellows, working across six continents and in over 80 countries. Altogether, our Fellows have impacted the lives of more than 4.6 million people around the globe. Through Resolution Project, young leaders receive unmatched guidance and wisdom from a team of partners, volunteers, and innovative peers around the globe. We remain committed—today and always— to all of our Fellows and to expanding our outreach to lower-resourced communities. Resolution does not discriminate on the basis of race or ethnicity, color, national, social or indigenous origin, ancestry, gender identity, sex or gender (including pregnancy), LGBTQ+ status or sexual orientation, age, religion, creed, physical or mental disability, weight, marital or partnership status, veteran status, military service status, or any other characteristic consistent with relevant legal requirements, in regards to Resolution’s operations or in provision of its Fellowship program.

Office of The Alternate Defense Counsel
Denver, Colorado
Are you interested in living and working in a small town in Colorado? Are you interested in starting your own law firm to improve access to justice for people outside of the major metropolitan areas? Are you passionate about helping indigent people accused of criminal or delinquent acts? Do you believe that holistic, team-oriented representation is essential for all people accused of criminal or delinquent acts? If so, then the Office of the Alternate Defense Counsel is offering you a unique opportunity to develop a private practice in an underserved or rural area of Colorado through the Greater Colorado Fellowship Program.
About OADC:
The Office of the Alternate Defense Counsel (OADC) is the state agency responsible for providing client services and legal representation for indigent individuals (adults and youth) when the state has charged them with a criminal or delinquent act and the Office of the Colorado State Public Defender has a conflict of interest. The OADC accomplishes this by contracting with over 400 private attorneys and another 500 legal service providers (forensic social workers/clinical advocates, paralegals, investigators, legal researchers, etc.) to provide client services on an hourly basis. Our fundamental belief is that interdisciplinary legal defense teams, practicing holistic defense, produce better results for our clients.
Mission Statement:
The mission of the Office of the Alternate Defense Counsel (OADC), through the practice of holistic public defense, is to help adults and children who the government has charged with criminal and delinquent offenses. The OADC’s holistic practice model fosters ethical, informed, and standard-driven best practices in public defense. The OADC allocates resources in a manner intentionally designed to rebalance the disparate power wielded by the government in the criminal legal system. OADC advocates for every client’s inherent worth and dignity by centering the client’s lived experiences and voice to achieve the best legal outcome.
The OADC is dedicated to zealous, client-centered advocacy rooted in social justice, integrity, and humility. We recognize that we are working within a broken and racist criminal legal system. Public defense advocates play an essential role in challenging bias and disparity within the courtroom, within our offices, and within ourselves. Statistical data and experiences support that there is a disparate presence of violent policing, over-charging, and harsher sentencing outcomes for Colorado’s people of color and other vulnerable populations. The OADC is unwavering in its support of decarceration, the decriminalization of youth, and equity within the criminal legal system.
About the Greater Colorado Fellowship:
The rural attorney shortage is a nationwide problem. Despite about 14 percent of Americans living in rural communities, only about two percent of law firms are located in small towns or rural areas. Further, the number of attorneys in rural communities has only continued to decline as many existing rural lawyers are approaching retirement age, with too few law school graduates moving in to replace them. Colorado is not immune to this problem.
The OADC has struggled with a chronic shortage of qualified attorneys (and other legal service providers) in rural Colorado. We are attempting to fix this problem through the Greater Colorado Fellowship program. This Fellowship will provide a lawyer, recent or soon-to-be law school graduate, with an opportunity to develop a successful law office in an area that the OADC considers to be an underserved area of legal representation. We are focusing on the areas surrounding 6 areas – Grand Junction/Montrose, Durango/Cortez, Glenwood Springs/Eagle, Salida/Canon City, Fort Morgan/Sterling, and La Junta/Lamar – but are open to other possibilities if a candidate has ties to a different Greater Colorado community.
Starting a legal practice in a Greater Colorado location provides unique opportunities for professional growth and improved work/life balance. For example, underserved areas, by definition, have less competition and upward mobility is easier. And, substantially smaller legal communities provide opportunities for collaboration and innovation. For general examples of rural communities using their strengths for innovations, see the Rural Justice Collaborative’s Innovation Sites . Plus, these communities offer a lower cost of living, access to outdoor recreational activities, and prioritization of personal fulfillment.
This Fellowship Program is the ultimate public-private partnership as it provides a full-time state employee position (FTE) with salary and benefits while the fellow develops their emerging business in a rural community.
This employee position can begin as early as December 1, 2023, or as late as October 31, 2024. The duration of the Fellowship can be up to, but cannot exceed, two years. The exact start date and duration of the Fellowship will be tailored to meet the needs of the fellow and their surrounding Colorado community. During that time, the OADC will provide “wrap-around” mentorship to the fellow as a Full-Time Employee, from experienced criminal defense practitioners to assist with developing appropriate legal, case management, and professional skills. In addition, the OADC has a robust training program to further aid in professional development.
Although the Fellowship is geared toward developing an attorney who is proficient in criminal defense, we understand that the fellow will need to develop a “small-town” practice representing people in more than just criminal matters. It is anticipated that the fellow will build relationships, and develop skills allowing them to produce income through private representation, court-appointed work in dependency and neglect cases through other state agencies (e.g., the Office of Respondent Parents’ Counsel or the Office of the Child’s Representative), and partnerships with civil litigation associations such as Legal Aid (Colorado Legal Services). As such, the OADC has partnered with other entities to provide further mentorship assistance in areas of law other than criminal defense to meet the needs of the individual fellow.
The OADC is a collaborative workspace designed for people who thrive in a team environment. This position reports to the Attorney Development Coordinator but will engage with all members of the OADC team and will be expected to fulfill other duties deemed necessary to help fulfill our Mission.
Candidates:
The ideal candidate is committed to criminal public defense, public service and dreams of starting a thriving private practice. The ideal candidate is also committed to living and serving in a rural community that the OADC recognizes as an underserved area in need of legal representation. Your role is to be an integral part of the community, not as a commuter, but as a community member who resides in this rural area, is dedicated to serving and building community, and provides excellent legal representation.
You are someone who passionately wants to create your own small business rather than be a government employee; you live for entrepreneurship and supporting a community that needs your vision and expertise.
You are passionate about team-oriented, holistic public defense and zealous in your commitment to equity, diversity, inclusion, and empathy.
You are a team member who is collaborative, possesses excellent verbal and written communication skills, and is innately creative and self-motivated.
If you are offered employment, the following are the Conditions of Employment:
Be a current resident of the state of Colorado or become a resident of the state of Colorado within 30 days of the hire date.
Be currently licensed to practice law in the State of Colorado or will be licensed to practice law in the State of Colorado within 90 days of the hire date. For graduating law students, this fellowship is contingent upon passing the Colorado Bar Exam.
Have a valid driver’s license and a vehicle to meet travel requirements.
Be willing to submit a routine background investigation, including a criminal history check.
If hired, the Immigration Reform and Control Act requires you to provide proof of your eligibility to work in the United States within three workdays.

Full time
Are you interested in living and working in a small town in Colorado? Are you interested in starting your own law firm to improve access to justice for people outside of the major metropolitan areas? Are you passionate about helping indigent people accused of criminal or delinquent acts? Do you believe that holistic, team-oriented representation is essential for all people accused of criminal or delinquent acts? If so, then the Office of the Alternate Defense Counsel is offering you a unique opportunity to develop a private practice in an underserved or rural area of Colorado through the Greater Colorado Fellowship Program.
About OADC:
The Office of the Alternate Defense Counsel (OADC) is the state agency responsible for providing client services and legal representation for indigent individuals (adults and youth) when the state has charged them with a criminal or delinquent act and the Office of the Colorado State Public Defender has a conflict of interest. The OADC accomplishes this by contracting with over 400 private attorneys and another 500 legal service providers (forensic social workers/clinical advocates, paralegals, investigators, legal researchers, etc.) to provide client services on an hourly basis. Our fundamental belief is that interdisciplinary legal defense teams, practicing holistic defense, produce better results for our clients.
Mission Statement:
The mission of the Office of the Alternate Defense Counsel (OADC), through the practice of holistic public defense, is to help adults and children who the government has charged with criminal and delinquent offenses. The OADC’s holistic practice model fosters ethical, informed, and standard-driven best practices in public defense. The OADC allocates resources in a manner intentionally designed to rebalance the disparate power wielded by the government in the criminal legal system. OADC advocates for every client’s inherent worth and dignity by centering the client’s lived experiences and voice to achieve the best legal outcome.
The OADC is dedicated to zealous, client-centered advocacy rooted in social justice, integrity, and humility. We recognize that we are working within a broken and racist criminal legal system. Public defense advocates play an essential role in challenging bias and disparity within the courtroom, within our offices, and within ourselves. Statistical data and experiences support that there is a disparate presence of violent policing, over-charging, and harsher sentencing outcomes for Colorado’s people of color and other vulnerable populations. The OADC is unwavering in its support of decarceration, the decriminalization of youth, and equity within the criminal legal system.
About the Greater Colorado Fellowship:
The rural attorney shortage is a nationwide problem. Despite about 14 percent of Americans living in rural communities, only about two percent of law firms are located in small towns or rural areas. Further, the number of attorneys in rural communities has only continued to decline as many existing rural lawyers are approaching retirement age, with too few law school graduates moving in to replace them. Colorado is not immune to this problem.
The OADC has struggled with a chronic shortage of qualified attorneys (and other legal service providers) in rural Colorado. We are attempting to fix this problem through the Greater Colorado Fellowship program. This Fellowship will provide a lawyer, recent or soon-to-be law school graduate, with an opportunity to develop a successful law office in an area that the OADC considers to be an underserved area of legal representation. We are focusing on the areas surrounding 6 areas – Grand Junction/Montrose, Durango/Cortez, Glenwood Springs/Eagle, Salida/Canon City, Fort Morgan/Sterling, and La Junta/Lamar – but are open to other possibilities if a candidate has ties to a different Greater Colorado community.
Starting a legal practice in a Greater Colorado location provides unique opportunities for professional growth and improved work/life balance. For example, underserved areas, by definition, have less competition and upward mobility is easier. And, substantially smaller legal communities provide opportunities for collaboration and innovation. For general examples of rural communities using their strengths for innovations, see the Rural Justice Collaborative’s Innovation Sites . Plus, these communities offer a lower cost of living, access to outdoor recreational activities, and prioritization of personal fulfillment.
This Fellowship Program is the ultimate public-private partnership as it provides a full-time state employee position (FTE) with salary and benefits while the fellow develops their emerging business in a rural community.
