 We’d be delighted if you’d join us for The Raben Group’s policy breakfast with Nina Vinik, senior program officer for the Gun Violence Program at the Joyce Foundation in Chicago.

Ms. Vinik is one of the country’s leading legal and policy thinkers on the issue of gun violence prevention.  She manages the Foundation’s grant making to support evidence-based policies and practices to reduce gun death and injury in the United States. 
 
Prior to joining Joyce,  Ms. Vinik served as legal director of Legal Community Against Violence (LCAV), a non-profit organization providing legal and technical assistance in support of gun violence prevention policy efforts nationwide. 
Ms. Vinik has also served as director of the Litigation Assistance Partnership Project of the American Bar Association’s Section of Litigation,  Fair Housing Project director of the Chicago Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, Inc., and legal director of the ACLU Foundation of Florida, Inc. After graduating from law school, she practiced law at the firm of Jenner & Block in Chicago.
