Alaska Legal Services Corporation Appoints New Executive Director

Humm has worked with ALSC for more than twenty years, as an intern, staff attorney, supervising attorney, and deputy director before serving as interim executive director. In her practice, she has advocated for victims of violence and sexual assault and for underserved families and youth. She has demonstrated herself to be a collaborative leader working alongside Alaska’s tribes and nonprofits in major cases and in negotiations to increase access to justice across the state.

“ALSC has an incredibly dedicated staff that provides critical civil legal services to thousands of Alaskans each year,” Humm says. “I’m honored to be chosen as the next person to lead this wonderful organization and I look forward to working with our staff, board of directors, and community partners to deliver high quality and innovative legal services to communities throughout Alaska. Alaska faces an enormous justice gap with low-income individuals and families facing countless civil legal problems that they are not able to get assistance with; ALSC plays a key role in resolving this issue and I am excited to work with so many talented individuals who are working hard to address this crisis.”
