The Harlan Institute is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is "tto bring a stylized law school experience into the high school classroom to ensure that our next generation of leaders has a proper understanding of our most fundamental laws."[1] The primary focus of the Harlan Institute is on the study of the Supreme Court of the United States and on [[United States Constitution|constitutional law]. The Institute's primary means of supplying legal education to a high school audience is through FantasySCOTUS, a program devoted to giving high schoolers a free way to predict "real cases that the students will read in the news."[2]

The Harlan Institute is a partner of Justice Sandra Day O'Connor's iCivics. [3]
