The Project
Seth catalyzed systemic change by providing direct transactional and civil legal services and by leveraging community advocacy strategies. Additionally, Seth developed intake and referral systems to represent individuals on health care access and provide transactional legal assistance for community-based organizations. Ultimately, Seth worked to successfully implement health care access campaigns through community development and seek to reform the way that health care allocation decisions are made at the city and state levels.
