The Center for Gender & Refugee Studies (CGRS) is very proud to announce that CGRS Senior Staff Attorney Christine Lin has been selected to receive the Legal Aid Association of California’s 2017 Award of Merit for a Legal Services Attorney, which recognizes attorneys who improve access to justice in California through legal services. A fierce advocate, generous colleague, and effective educator of legal services practitioners throughout California, Christine empowers and increases the capacity of attorneys and organizations to provide quality legal representation to indigent asylum seekers. Christine will be presented with the Award of Merit at a luncheon hosted by LAAC in November.
Congratulations Christine!
