Gillian Katz Lamon

Public Works Alliance Child Welfare & Health Law Fellow

Gillian joined YLC as the Public Works Alliance Child Welfare & Health Law Fellow in September 2025. Her fellowship project will focus on the intersection of child welfare and health care, specifically on using Medicaid as a primary prevention and intervention strategy for child welfare system-involvement and to finance strategies to divert or limit system-involvement for families. Gillian graduated from UC Law SF (formerly UC Hastings) in May 2025 and, during law school, worked with YLC as a 2023 summer legal intern. Prior to law school, she held multiple positions in mental health fundraising, communications, and administration at the Seneca Family of Agencies.
