May Volunteer of the Month – Hollis French

Filed Under: Volunteer of the MonthMay 8, 2016

Hollis French

ALSC’s May Volunteer of the Month is Hollis French!  As a volunteer for ALSC’s Housing Court Justice Project, Hollis lends his time and talent to pro se low-income tenants or low-income landlords in Eviction Court.  Check out our interview with Hollis below:

Why did you choose to volunteer with ALSC?

I chose to volunteer with ALSC because of their excellent reputation in the legal community.

What are some of your experiences at ALSC that have made a positive difference in the lives of others?

I have come to greatly enjoy volunteering with the Housing Project. Each case, while similar in the basics, offers a glimpse into a very difficult and unique situation. Each case offers the opportunity to mitigate the pain of an eviction through negotiation. And I have found that clients are very grateful for the help they receive. I think any lawyer can gain skills through working in a ‘real time’ clinic like the Housing Project.

What do you do when you are not volunteering with ALSC?

I’m like most Alaskans and enjoy the outdoors. I just recently finished a ski traverse of the Chugach Mountains, leaving Eureka on the Glenn Highway and arriving in Valdez a week later. It’s a spectacular trip.

Alaska Legal Services Corporation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that provides high quality free civil legal services to low-income Alaskans in need. Since 1967, ALSC's services have reached thousands of Alaskans and their communities to protect their safety, their health and promote family stability.
