Accomplishments Creation of Citizenship Corners in all 72 public libraries in the City of Los Angeles through CCF s citizenship collaborative which is jointly funded by local, state and national foundation partners. This library outreach model has become a national model. 1
2 Creation, with local input and CCF funding, of a civic engagement academy in an large but isolated area of the county that has seen numerous instances of political corruption and resident disenfranchisement. The academy s 52 Spanish-speaking participants are entering part two of a 30-week course that will culminate in real time civic engagement activities, including policy advocacy. Launch of a 3-year, $1 million America Muslim civic engagement initiative in Los Angeles County, with a matching grant from a national family foundation. As a member of California s Citizens Redistricting Commission, drew the 2011 lines for California s legislative and Congressional Districts. Earl Warren Institute on Law and Social Policy, University of California, Berkeley, School of Law, ( ) Executive Director, Resident Lecturer The Warren Institute s mission is to engage the most difficult topics in a wide range of legal and public policy subject areas, providing research and expertise for public and private sector leaders, the media and the general public. The Warren Institute is funded principally by project-specific foundation grants and donations from alumni of Berkeley School of Law. Between , the Institute s areas of focus were education equity, impact of immigration enforcement by local law enforcement agencies on local communities, and voter engagement. Designed research projects together with the Institute s two faculty codirectors (Justice Goodwin Liu and Dean Christopher Edley), and with the input of policymakers, policy advocates and research faculty at UC and other universities. Oversight and responsibility for development efforts. Raising money for research projects was the joint responsibility of the director, research staff, development director, and faculty co-directors. Supervision of 4 research staff (2 part-time), 1 development director and 3 support staff. Supervision of research staff included joint design of research projects, ensuring that proposed research was relevant to policy work in our core areas, and securing funding for the research. In addition, research supervision entailed making sure relationships with research faculty throughout UC Berkeley and the UC system were cultivated and carefully maintained. Finally, as Director I reviewed every report we produced for content, methodology and presentation. Accomplishments Multi-year, multi-million grant to produce research white papers on bedrock education topics to be presented by experts at quarterly roundtables held in Washington DC and attended by national organizations dedicated to improving educational outcomes for underrepresented communities. 2
3 Production of a series of white papers on the economic and human rights impact of discriminatory immigration enforcement conducted by local law enforcement agencies. Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights of the San Francisco Bay Area, San Francisco, CA ( ) Executive Director The Lawyers Committee, or LCCR as it is known locally, is a non-profit, public interest law firm established in LCCR provides direct legal services through a weekly legal clinic staffed by pro bono attorneys from major Bay Area law firms. The clinic is a major source of pro bono work for many new and long time attorneys in the Bay Area. LCCR s direct services are widely known for their asylum and refugee work that has resulted in national precedent setting legal decisions. In addition, LCCR brings impact lawsuits in the areas of education equity, immigrant rights, employment discrimination and voting rights. With experienced in-house lawyers, the model at LCCR is to co-counsel all its cases with major local law firms. With this model LCCR is able to benefit from the resources of community minded law firms and also establish a financial support from lawyers and law firms. Managed a staff of 6 lawyers, 3 paralegals, 4 fellows, development director, office manager, accountant and 4 support staff with a yearly budget of $7 million. Reviewed and gave final approval for recommended litigation and settlements. Participated in the internal litigation committee that set longterm legal strategy and oversaw existing litigation. Responsible for fund raising through an annual event, foundation grants, individual donor campaigns, annual board giving campaigns and securing and management of attorney fees. Worked with a 14-member Board of Directors whose members came primarily from large established law firms, and some mid-sized and nonprofit law firms. Provided guidance to the Board s finance and membership committees. The LCCR board meets quarterly and the finance committee met on a monthly basis. LCCR had a $400,000 deficit and a systemic weekly cash flow problem when I was hired. When I left 3+ years later, LCCR had a 6-month reserve and an endowment. This was the result of cost cutting, increased individual donations, new national foundation grants, and a novel strategy of having law firms contribute settlement monies to LCCR. In 1 year, we had over $900,000 in firm donations. For the first time LCCR received multiple national grants. With the help of the Board, the community and consultants, reestablished LCCR s work in the African-American community, which was at the heart of it founding. 3
4 Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, San Francisco, CA, Sacramento, CA and Atlanta, GA ( ) Regional and National Senior Counsel MALDEF, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, is the country s oldest and largest legal civil rights organization dedicated to legal work on behalf of the nation s Latino community. It has offices in DC, Chicago, San Antonio, Atlanta, Los Angeles and Sacramento. Managed Regional Offices in San Francisco and Sacramento. The San Francisco office had 6 full-time staff, yearly interns and fellows, and a regional budget of $3 million. Responsibilities included producing an annual dinner, supervision of all litigation and of the regional census outreach program in In addition, I maintained my own litigation caseload. I also supervised MALDEF s legislative office of 4 in Sacramento. This included deciding which legislation to sponsor and support, and supervision of the staff s work to build support for legislation, often accompanying them on legislative visits. When MALDEF s San Francisco office was closed in order to open the new Atlanta office, I was tasked with opening the Atlanta office. I also supervised the organization s national employment litigation and policy work across regional offices and worked with the DC office on immigration policy. Opened MALDEF s Southeast office in Atlanta, GA to address the legal and civic needs of the new and growing Latino population. First new MALDEF office in 12 years. In 2001, worked successful to pass bi-partisan legislation in Sacramento that opened the doors of higher education to undocumented students, now known as Dreamers. Women's Employment Rights Clinic, Golden Gate University School of Law, San Francisco CA ( ) Associate Director and Associate Professor of Law This Clinic is a self sustaining department of Golden Gate Law School that provides 4
5 law students with hands-on clinical education that prepares them for a successful job search and career. Taught and supervised law students who handled wage and hour cases, and unemployment appeals in an administrative setting. Also created opportunities for students to participate in larger court cases where the clinic worked with external law firms. Established a line of support for the clinic by adding a line of cases that brought a steady flow of attorney fees to the Clinic. This enabled the Clinic to pay for its overhead, thus ensuring GGU faculty support for the program. Equal Rights Advocates, San Francisco CA, ( ) Staff Attorney Founded in the early 70 s, Equal Rights Advocates is a public interest law firm that specializes in legal and policy advocacy on behalf of women and girls. It is one of a handful of remaining organizations dedicated to legal advocacy on issues affecting women and girls. Handled numerous federal class action and individual cases involving pay and pregnancy discrimination, and sexual harassment. Participated in local and national policy work on issues related to gender discrimination and immigrant women. Represented the women who integrated the San Francisco Fire Department. This was a complex and controversial case that lasted many years, as did the monitoring of the consent decree eventually approved by the federal court. Drafted the pregnancy policy for the department, one of the first in the country. Litigated the first peer sexual harassment case in the country (involved bullying of a middle school student in Santa Rosa) jointly with a New York public interest la firm. Litigated a case of first impression that established that undocumented workers were covered by Title VII anti-discrimination laws.
