Hello list mates: 

 

Last week, DRC posted about our open housing position. Here is a second opening as well: 

 

Disability Rights California (DRC) is seeking a creative, bold, and experienced litigator for a position with our Mental Health Practice Group. This team recently brought a successful COVID-19 lawsuit for people in the state psychiatric hospitals and has an important case in Alameda County challenging the revolving door between locked facilities and the street and highlighting the disproportionate impact on Black residents. The team also handles all our ADA/504 advocacy in county jails, including several successful ADA/504 jail cases and more that we are working up. 

 

Feel free to contact Jennifer Stark, the Managing Attorney of the Mental Health Practice Group, with any questions.  She can be reached at  <mailto:jennifer.stark at disabilityrightsca.org> jennifer.stark at disabilityrightsca.org. 

 

The job posting is attached. The salary range for a Litigation Counsel at DRC is $107,757 - $157,814, and for a Senior Attorney, $85,716 – $124,722.  We base salary and position offers on experience and an internal equity analysis. To view the detailed job descriptions and complete the application process visit:
