Special speaking engagement by Nikki Johnson-Huston, Esq.
"From Homeless to Lawyer”: One Woman’s Amazing Journey
Nikki Johnson-Huston, Esq. is an unlikely success story. Born into poverty, she was homeless at age 9, failed out of college by age 18. She did not let that stop her. Nikki got a job as a nanny during the day, went back to college at night and graduated from the same college she had failed out of 4 years earlier.
A 2004 graduate of Temple University Beasley School of Law in Philadelphia she earned a J.D./M.B.A/ LL.M in Taxation in only four years. Nikki is a tax attorney for The City of Philadelphia Law Department in the Major Tax Unit.
She is Co-Chair of the Philadelphia Bar Association Women in the Profession Committee, a member of several boards of directors, and started a mentoring program for inner-city students interested in pursuing a career in the legal profession. Nikki has conducted numerous panels about issues related to education, poverty, and homelessness.
Why:
Since 1989, Project H.O.M.E. has helped more than 8,000 people break the cycle of homelessness and poverty by providing a continuum of care that includes street outreach, supportive housing and comprehensive services that focus on health care, education and employment. We also work to prevent homelessness and poverty through comprehensive neighborhood revitalization in North Philadelphia.
“…what excited me most of all about Project H.O.M.E was their job training and service providing. It was the old adage of giving a man a fish versus teaching him how to fish.” ~ Jon Bon Jovi
