Years of Advocacy by HIRC Culminate in Landmark Decision by First Circuit

Congratulations to Deborah Anker '75, Harvard Law clinical professor and founder of the Harvard Immigration and Refugee Clinic (HIRC), and John Willshire-Carrera '85 and Nancy Kelly '84, co-assistant directors of HIRC at Greater Boston Legal Services, for their work contributing to federal court recognition of gender as a basis for asylum claims. Arguments filed by HIRC in an amicus brief cited by the court largely formed the basis of its ruling.
