Carmen Kcomt Recognized as one of San Diego’s Distinguished Citizens

This time last year, in June of 2015, Carmen Kcomt received the “Distinguished Citizen” Award from the San Diego County Bar Association for her work with La Maestra Community Health Center. This award highlighted Carmen’s resilience after persecution by the Peruvian authorities and her 31-year contribution to her community through her legal practice– both in Peru and once she was resettled to the San Diego in the US. Carmen and nine others were honored at the Annual Awards Luncheon and through publication in the San Diego Lawyer Magazine.
