Honoring Those Who Invest in Our Students
LUCHA is strengthened by the judges, attorneys, educators, advocates, and community leaders who give their time, experience, and perspective to our students. Whether through mentorship, speaking, professional development, or simply opening a door, their investment helps prepare the next generation of legal professionals.
This page is our way of saying thank you.
Executive Director | Renters Rights of Tennessee
Anne Boatner is a Vanderbilt Law graduate and housing advocate whose work focuses on assisting individuals facing eviction. In 2023, the Tennessee Bar Association named her the Ashley T. Wiltshire Public Service Attorney of the Year.
Anne holds a special place in LEAP's 2026 launch story: she was the first mentor to say “yes.” Her willingness to invest her time and experience in a LUCHA student helped turn LEAP from an idea into an opportunity and set the example for those who followed.
Thank you, Anne, for being the first to say yes.
