Jackie Harrington is an AmeriCorps Legal Advocate in the Fall River Office. She will primarily focus on elder law but hopes to be exposed to a range practice groups throughout her service year. Jackie graduated from College of the Holy Cross in the spring of 2022 with a double major in history and political science and a concentration in peace and conflict studies. Throughout her time at Holy Cross, Jackie engaged in a variety of volunteer efforts aimed at addressing inequities in low income communities. In her senior year, she interned with the Honorable Timothy Hillman of the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts and gained practical knowledge of the judicial system. She is interested in a career in public interest law and aims to acquire familiarity with both the mechanisms of the law and the needs of the communities she serves.
