Alan Mills writes: “As the executive director of the Uptown People’s Law Center in Chicago, I continue my 35-plus year career as a lawyer representing prisoners subjected to unconstitutional conditions in Illinois prisons, tenants facing wrongful eviction, and disabled people wrongfully denied Social Security disability benefits. The National Legal Aid & Defender Association honored me Dec. 8 with the Reginald Heber Smith Award, recognizing the ‘dedicated service and outstanding achievements of a civil legal aid attorney.’ I look forward to reconnecting with old friends at our 40th reunion.”
