Keynote Speaker

Andrea Campbell, Attorney General of Massachusetts

In January 2023, Andrea Joy Campbell was sworn in as the 45th Attorney General of Massachusetts. Attorney General Campbell works to build economic prosperity and stability for all residents, prioritize the mental health and well-being of children, stop cycles of incarceration and violence, and ensure that people across the state have access to the AG's Office regardless of their zip code, language or ability.

Attorney General Campbell is no stranger to the challenges faced by our guests and tenants. Due to the tragic loss of her mother and the incarceration of her father, Andrea and her brothers lived with relatives and in foster care until her father was released. Thanks to loving relatives, community support and a network of teachers who encouraged her, she graduated from Princeton University and UCLA Law School.
