The Legal Aid Society’s Post

We’re proud to share that Twyla Carter, Attorney-in-Chief and CEO of The Legal Aid Society, has been named to City & State’s NYC Power 100 list. This recognition comes as Legal Aid marks its 150th anniversary and continues to meet this moment — from advancing oversight at Rikers Island, to securing protections for immigrant communities, to pushing forward reforms that better support children and families. Since joining Legal Aid in 2022, Twyla has worked relentlessly to improve contract procurement and payment processes and to secure additional funding to significantly increase baseline salaries for all staff. We’re honored to see her leadership recognized among New York’s most influential voices. https://lnkd.in/eQbMemRC
