Spring 2021 Community Economic Justice Clinical Student

Maria is an intelligent and methodical advocate whose contributions this semester were critical to the success of our clinic’s policy advocacy and business clients. She is somebody who leaves no stone unturned when engaging in research, as demonstrated by the comprehensive legal analysis that Maria contributed to an array of legal projects. Her work ranged from examining various policy advocacy measures to self-help materials for community members. In particular, Maria’s legal research in support of a local municipal ordinance came at a time when our organization was actively advocating for legislation; we could not have made the progress we did without her significant contributions.
