Alumna Karen Barker Marcou '95 has spent her career expanding access to justice. Crediting AUWCL's clinical program and mentors like Professors Susan Bennett, Pat Roth and Jamie Raskin for shaping her path, Marcou went on to co-found what is now Volunteer Legal Advocates after encountering the barriers pro bono attorneys faced outside of law firm affiliations. Dozens of AUWCL graduates have volunteered or worked on staff with VLA since 2008, and Marcou hopes even more Eagles will join in turning legal training into life-changing advocacy.
