Today, we bid a heartfelt farewell to longtime Legal Aid NC attorney, Jen Story, as she embarks on a new journey! Jen’s dedication to education justice in North Carolina began in 2005. Following her work in juvenile court and school settings, she earned her law degree and joined us in 2012 as a staff attorney at Advocates for Children's Services (now the Right to Education Project). For over a decade, Jen has fiercely championed the educational rights of some of our most vulnerable clients—children. Reflecting on her journey, Jen shared: “It has been one of the greatest privileges of my life to have spent the last 12 years advocating for students alongside my incredible colleagues at REP.” In February, Jen was honored with the Children’s Champion Award from the North Carolina Bar Association (NCBA) for her exceptional work. Read more about her career and the award here: https://lnkd.in/eTQhmnTK We are deeply grateful for Jen's advocacy, dedication, and outstanding leadership of the REP team. While we will miss her immensely, we are excited to see the remarkable contributions she will make in her new role at Campbell University, Norman Adrian Wiggins School of Law. Thank you, Jen, for everything! 💙

🌟 A huge thank you to the Wake County Bar Association/Tenth Judicial District Bar Foundation for awarding $30,000 to The Child's Advocate (TCA)! Atiya Mosley, our Managing Attorney and Project Director, received this generous grant from Maria Lynch, Past President of the Tenth Judicial District Bar. This funding will significantly enhance our mission to increase access to justice for children in Wake County. TCA attorneys represent children from all economic, racial, and ethnic backgrounds, ensuring their voices are heard in cases involving domestic violence, child abuse, substance abuse, mental instability, relocation, special needs, and issues of sexual orientation or gender identity. Your support helps us make a difference in the lives of these children. Thank you! 🙏💙 #AccessToJustice #WakeCountyBarAssociation #TheChildsAdvocate #ThankYou #CommunitySupport #ChildAdvocacy
