The Student Bar Association (SBA) is the governmental body for all law students. Every School of Law student is a member of the SBA. The purpose of SBA, as set forth by its constitution, is to provide the students of the law school with a forum for the expression of ideas concerning the social, moral and intellectual aspects of the legal profession, and also to provide an opportunity for the students of the law school to participate in the formulation and administration of the educational policies of the law school. The SBA serves as an umbrella organization for all of the student groups within the law school. The SBA provides funding for student organizations, coordinates activities among students, works in conjunction with the Deans’ Office in addressing student concerns, and represents the law school in the Graduate and Professional Student Association (GPSA) of Saint Louis University. The SBA is committed to creating the best learning environment for all students, and we encourage everyone to actively participate in SBA activities.

"The environment can't protect itself... somebody's got to do it." - Lewis Green Missouri's environment needs a legal advocate. Laws themselves cannot protect the environment; they require an advocate to ensure they are interpreted in good faith, monitored and fully enforced. Great Rivers Environmental Law Center is that advocate. Our work focuses around four core areas: To promote the public health by encouraging cleaner energy, improved environmental performance by businesses, and more efficient transportation and land use, thereby achieving cleaner air and water, and improving the quality of life in the region. To preserve open spaces, forest, flood-plains and wetlands for their recreational, aesthetic and agricultural benefits, and their values as flood storage and habitat for migratory birds and other species. To protect disadvantaged populations from an unreasonable share of the environmental burdens of modern society. To aid and advise citizens and organizations in asserting and defending their interests in environmental values before administrative officials and as a last resort, before the courts.

Trailnet provides bicycling and livability programs and events to diverse groups of people. Hallmark programs include Safe Routes to School, Earn 2 Bikes, TravelGreen, Bicycle Fun Club, and Cultural Tours. -Trailnet’s outreach and engagement activities reach individuals from all demographics, backgrounds, and socioeconomic categories, confirming that active transportation is for anyone and everyone. -We help make non-motorized commuting a feasible choice for anyone. -All of our programs focus on educating and encouraging people of all ages to travel throughout their community on bike and on foot. Active, vibrant communities are healthier and safer. -Trailnet’s Bicycle Fun Club is one of the most active bike event programs in the nation and serves up to 10,000 recreational bicyclists annually. -Our TravelGreen program engages and educates those ready to make the switch to active transportation by using their bikes for more than recreation. We build and nurture commuter networks that move people closer to their goals – whether it’s to become healthier, save money, protect the environment, or just to have fun. -All Trailnet programs respond to the shocking statistics that 2/3 of all American adults are either obese or overweight. This holds significant economic value since this “weigh-in” increases the cost of health care for everyone, impacts attendance at work and school due to related illness, and increases fuel usage because vehicles are carrying more weight. Trailnet assists municipalities in designing streets, sidewalks, and trails that allow and encourage people to walk and bike safely through their community. -Trailnet’s community planning team works closely with community leaders, residents, and stakeholders to create safer, healthier, and more active communities. -Between 2001 and 2011, more than 688,000 pedestrians in the U.S. were injured – a number equivalent to a pedestrian being struck by a motorized vehicle every 7 minutes. In Missouri, bicycle related injuries represent more than 10% of all roadway injuries. These numbers present an imperative need for communities to address the safety of all their citizens. -To date we have partnered with 26 municipalities, creating plans that attract and retain residents, stimulate economic development, and improve community health. Trailnet’s Healthy, Active and Vibrant Communities (HAVC) initiative was created in partnership with the Missouri Foundation for Health. It provides opportunities and access to healthy, active living for residents of urban, rural, and suburban communities. -Trailnet’s HAVC initiative focuses at the policy level to produce the farthest-reaching and longest-term solutions to obesity, especially in low-income communities. It includes proven strategies of policy change affecting the built environment and building social networks around healthy lifestyles. -The HAVC initiative has received national recognition as an “emerging intervention” that holds promise for replication. It’s been developed in 11 diverse communities in St. Louis and across the state. -Trailnet staff participates in federal, state, and local policy advocacy, working with partners to draft and file policy, educate policymakers, and promote health- and safety-related initiatives to the public. -Trailnet participated in the passage of two recent St. Louis City ordinances: the Form Based Code ordinance that creates more walkable, bikeable communities, and the Safe Streets ordinance that protects people who walk and bike from endangerment and assault.

Founded in 2003 by Max and Colleen Starkloff, the Starkloff Disability Institute works on changing societal attitudes and perceptions about people with disabilities through activities that send a positive message about living with disability in order to create a world that welcomes disabled people. The Institute does this through various projects which disseminate a positive message about living with disability: * The Disability Studies Initiative * The Disability History Project * Universal Design Summit * Direct Action * The Next Big Step VISION When people understand disability, they will join our efforts to make it possible for people with disabilities to enjoy full participation in the communities where they live. GOALS Our goals include the following: * Using public dialogue to expose the misconceptions that prevent people with disabilities from taking charge of their own lives. * Disseminating a positive message about living with disability in the St. Louis region. * Creating educational programs to inform various segments of the St. Louis community about disability and preparing the next generation to view disability as a normal part of life. * Developing leadership opportunities for people with disabilities in the St. Louis region. * Conducting research in areas that will further our mission to prepare ourselves to provide information and advocacy with respect to public policy, community planning, and social justice. * Working with disabled and non-disabled individuals and organizations - employers, churches, businesses, governments, foundations, politicians, schools, medical professionals, and others - to develop attitudes and actions that will ensure that people with disabilities have the opportunity for full participation in society. These goals are grounded in the Values that define the Starkloff Disability Institute. Values and Beliefs * Attitudes can be changed, just like policies and laws. * Changing attitudes may well be the single biggest barrier standing between people with disabilities and full participation in society. * Changing attitudes must be … THE NEXT BIG STEP The work of the Starkloff Disability Institute is grounded in the following values: * All people should have equal opportunity to live, work, and participate fully in society. * People with disabilities should be perceived as equals in society. * Most people with disabilities and their families should know that they can make the choice to live more independently. * Public policy impacts the ability of people with disabilities to live independently. * We have a responsibility to train disabled leaders to advocate effectively for disability rights issues. * The study of disability history and culture are essential to understanding the role of disability in our society. * There is individual and systemic discrimination against people with disabilities, which must be acknowledged if we are to understand its impact and work to eliminate it. * People with disabilities don't want pity; they want acceptance, support, and full engagement with life. * It is our responsibility to educate corporations and public and private entities on ways to include people with disabilities. Collaboration and partnership are keys to our success. History Max and Colleen Starkloff established the Starkloff Disability Institute in October 2003 to take their work in the field of disability in a new direction. After founding Paraquad, Inc. in 1970, one of the nation's leading independent living centers, the Starkloffs wanted to dedicate the balance of their careers to enhancing opportunities for disabled people to achieve acceptance, independence, and full engagement with life. Many non-profit independent living centers and other disability oriented organizations, in the St. Louis area and the nation, work to improve the lives of people with disabilities through direct service activities that prepare them to live independently, and advocate for services that promote access to housing, transportation, education, personal assistance services, health care and employment. For more about independent living centers, see www.ilru.org. In short, these organizations help people with disabilities get out into the world. How SDI is different from Paraquad and other disability focused organizations. * Paraquad and other disability focused organizations teach people with disabilities to live independently in society. * SDI teaches society to accept people with disabilities. Prior to the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act in 1990, President George H. W. Bush said, "People with disabilities are the poorest, least educated, and largest minority in America." At that time, two thirds of Americans with disabilities between the ages of 16 and 64 were not working at all, although most said that they wanted to work. Seventeen years later, in spite of significant improvements won through ADA, President Bush's description remains accurate. FACTS: * 18+ percent of America's population is disabled. That's more than 1 out of 5 of our families, friends, and neighbors. * 69 percent of disabled people, age 16 - 64, are unemployed. Compare that to our current US unemployment "crisis" of 7 percent. * People with disabilities continue to be the highest unemployed and underemployed of any social category - by far. While 92 of the Fortune 100 companies have workplace diversity policies, disability is not consistently a diversity measure. Only 32 of these policies expressly mention people with disabilities.
