Let's Go Show with Doug Reed featuring Coco Culhane " An Honor to Serve"
If you don’t know, I am an advocate for veterans. Next on the Let’s Go Show with Doug Reed featuring Coco Culhane, who is the Executive Director for Veterans Advocacy Project. The work she does is beyond honorable. I wish it was available throughout the U.S
The Veteran Advocacy Project at the Urban Justice Center provides free legal services to low-income veterans, with a focus on those living with PTSD, TBI, substance abuse problems, and mental illness. We are partnered with VA hospitals, mental health clinics, and local veterans' groups to reach service members where they are. While our attorneys tackle the legal challenges, our peer advocates ensure that our clients are connected to appropriate social services. With a dedicated team, the project allows veterans to achieve the stability needed to regain their health and rebuild their lives.
Coco Culhane is the founder and executive director of the Veteran Advocacy Project. She is also an adjunct professor of clinical law at Brooklyn Law School, where she teaches the Veterans’ Rights Clinic and seminar. Coco presents on veterans’ legal issues and conducts trainings for attorneys, social workers, and students across the country. She also sits on several advisory boards, including the New York State Discharge Upgrade Advisory Board, and has served on Senator Kirsten Gillibrand’s service academy selection committees each year since 2014. After launching VAP as a part of the Mental Health Project of the Urban Justice Center in 2010, Coco received an Equal Justice Works Fellowship sponsored by the CIGNA Foundation and Cravath, Swaine & Moore, LLP. She started expanding VAP and its services and eventually spun off the project to form an independent not-for-profit.
Coco received a J.D. from Brooklyn Law School, where she was the symposium editor of the Brooklyn Law Review and co-president of the student health law association. Prior to law school she was an editor at The New Republic for six years. She received a B.A. in English from Wesleyan University.
