Sirrah Harris is NYLAG’s first-ever director of outreach and access to justice programs. She supervises and develops strategies for outreach and engagement through a number of community-based legal access projects including the Mobile Legal Help Center, Legal Hand, and the UJA Safety and Stability Project. These projects work with partners across NYC’s five boroughs to provide civil legal information, resources, and representation to individuals who otherwise may not have been able to access legal assistance.

Previously, Sirrah worked as the project director for the Mobile Legal Help Center; the onsite NYLAG attorney at the Legal Hand office in Crown Heights; and as a staff attorney in NYLAG’s Storm Response Unit. Before joining NYLAG, Sirrah worked at the Lenox Hill Neighborhood House as an Equal Justice Works AmeriCorps Fellow and staff attorney in their Workers’ Rights Project.
