Amanda Padgett

Amanda is a graduate of Willamette University with a degree in Politics, Policy, Law, and Ethics with a minor in Women’s and Gender Studies, and is now pursuing her JD at Willamette University’s College of Law. She has worked alongside three peers to examine healthcare, specifically for women who are incarcerated in Oregon. This research deepened her commitment to advocating for justice for women’s incarceration, a cause that is deeply influential to both her academic and professional work. Previously, she worked as a tutor and mentor with students who have personal ties to incarceration as a part of the Resilience Project, and served as the coordinator for Willamette’s Sexual Assault Response Advocates. She is extremely excited to work as a part of CREW, and to work alongside such remarkable and devoted people!
