Campbell Law School Launches Richardson Family Education Equity Clinic
RALEIGH – Campbell Law School formally launched the Richardson Family Education Equity Clinic with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Tuesday, Jan. 23, at the law school in downtown Raleigh.
Billy Richardson ‘80, a Fayetteville attorney who served in the North Carolina Legislature for more than a decade, and Barbara Richardson, who holds a master’s degree in special education, have given the law school a substantial gift to support the addition of a sixth pro bono clinic focusing on protection of the educational rights of children with disabilities.
“It is a real honor to be a part of this clinic,” Billy Richardson told the group of some 60 invitees gathered in the law school’s Pope Foyer. “Special education has meant so much to our family. This clinic enables us to be part of something bigger than ourselves.”
The Richardsons’ daughter Caroline McGann, is an occupational therapist, and their sons, Matt ‘09 and Zack ‘17, are also Campbell Law alumni, making support of the clinic a true family affair.
