Michelle Miller

The Project|My work builds upon Northwest Justice Project’s existing, Seattle-based Veterans Project. I will be the first attorney doing full-time, free civil legal aid for homeless and at-risk veterans in four counties between Seattle and the Canadian border. My work will also bring specific focus to reaching women veterans, whose distinct experiences and perspectives deserve specialized outreach and advocacy. I will empower these underserved populations of veterans by focusing on direct assistance and representation; recruiting, training, and supporting pro bono attorneys; developing training materials; and developing walk-in, community-based clinics.
