Ashley Harrington is federal advocacy director and senior policy counsel at the Center for Responsible
Lending (CRL). Ashley provides strategic leadership and insight into federal opportunities and threats
around CRLs issue areas. Ashley’s portfolio includes general consumer lending issues, with a particular
focus on student debt.

program, Ashley worked on student debt issues.

Before UNCF, Ashley served as CRL’s special assistant to the president and policy counsel. She assumed
a lead role in federal advocacy efforts and was a primary negotiator for the Department of Education’s
2017 – 2018 Borrower Defense to Repayment Rulemaking Committee. Ashley previously worked in the
Office of Governor Andrew Cuomo as special assistant to the chief diversity officer, focusing on supplier
diversity in government contracting and state workforce diversity.

Originally from Greensboro, NC, Ashley received her B.A. in Public Policy Analysis from UNC-Chapel Hill.
After UNC, Ashley earned her J.D. from New York University School of Law where she was a Derrick Bell
Public Service Scholar and an Articles Editor of the NYU Law Review. Ashley is admitted to practice law in
New York.
