At the East Bay Community Law Center, we have invested in leadership at the Board and staff level to meet the rising need for legal services. Our team’s work to apply for immigration relief, negotiate rental assistance, identify and prevent consumer fraud, fight punitive school discipline and ensure that unemployment doesn’t result in family impoverishment is critical now more than ever. That is why I’m proud to introduce you to the new leadership at EBCLC. From Board members who bring extensive lived and professional expertise to support staff who are helping us all stay connected during our switch to remote services, these new additions to our team will play a key role in our community’s recovery. I hope you will join me in welcoming these new justice champions. Each one of them helps us meet this critical moment.
