    Daniel Nagin joined the Law School in 2006 to direct the Family Resource Clinic, a joint project with Charlottesville’s Legal Aid Justice Center. In addition to his work in the clinic, he teaches a course on poverty law. His work and practice experience has focused primarily on housing, family, and public benefits matters.

    Nagin was previously lecturer in law and administrative director of the Civil Justice Clinic at Washington University in St. Louis. In the Civil Justice Clinic, he trained and supervised law students in the representation of low-income clients across a number of practice areas. Before joining Washington University’s clinical program, he spent two years at a New York City nonprofit organization as director of a social services and advocacy program for homeless persons living with, or at risk of, HIV/AIDS. He has also practiced law with legal services programs in the Jamaica section of Queens, New York and in Indianapolis, Indiana, where he was first staff attorney and then acting co-director of a homeless advocacy project.

    Nagin graduated from the University of Chicago Law School with honors and received the Edwin F. Mandel Award for his contributions to the clinical program. He received his bachelor’s degree from Cornell University, graduating Phi Beta Kappa and with distinction in all subjects. He holds a master’s degree in education from Stanford University.
