Summer Fellow Update


We are very proud of our 2014 Dan Bradley Fellow, Sylvia Tsai (UC Davis School of Law '16). She recently completed her fellowship with Legal Services of Northern California's Foreclosure Prevention Advocacy Project. 

"Serving the community, especially reaching out to the rural areas, not only exposed me to the big picture of public service, but also taught me invaluable lessons about life," she said.
