Erica Boyce grew up in Massachusetts and spent a lot of time on Cape Cod. She was attracted, of course, to the summer delights there, camping in scrub pines and standing in the surf. Over time, however, she also began to admire its long, rich history of fishing, and, as she tells it, “in college, I started to learn more about fishing regulation and just how complicated it was. … That regulatory environment is what led me to law school, in hopes of learning more about the regulations themselves.”

In 2013, Boyce finished her J.D. at Harvard and decided to take on the problems of the Cape Cod fishing community full time. Through an Equal Justice Works fellowship, she has been helping the Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen’s Alliance, a Chatham, Massachusetts-based nonprofit, on issues facing the local fishing community.
