Today, we speak with Robin Merrell, Managing Attorney at Pisgah Legal Services, about her role in supporting VTC veterans. Pisgah Legal Services seeks to pursue justice by providing legal assistance and advocacy to help low-income people in Western North Carolina meet their basic needs and improve their lives. Robin states, "I serve the most vulnerable people in our community—inside and outside the courtroom. I’ve seen the effects of trauma, racism, sexism, and the other ways people are mistreated in our community." Working with the VTC, Robin strives to mitigate the consequences of oppressive systems and promote whole-person healing.
