Pullman & Comley Makes an Impact at the Connect-Us Academy Summer Institute

On July 15, attorneys Karen Wackerman, Josh Cole, Andres Jimenez-Franck, Potoula Tournas and Snigdha Mamillapalli participated in the Connect-Us Academy Summer Institute. Connect-Us is an organization that provides Bridgeport students with after school opportunities and internships with area businesses. For the July 15 program, the students worked in small groups to select an issue they care about and developed a plan to advocate for that issue. They then presented their plan to the full group. After sharing their own stories of what mattered to them, our lawyers participated in the small groups to facilitate the students’ plans.

Pullman & Comley has worked with Connect-Us for several years, including two summers in which Connect-Us students interned at the firm.
