Jill Hanley comes to McGill after having studied in Montreal, Boston and Brussels, having benefited from an interdisciplinary education. Her research today focuses on community organizing and social policy as they intersect with people's immigration status, and she is pleased to be involved in several research teams around this broad topic. She remains active in Montreal-based community organizations, particularly the Immigrant Workers' Centre. Jill is interested in working with students who are interested in bridging the community-university divide.

Dr. Hanley joined the faculty in 2006 as an Assistant Professor and comes to the School of Social Work having previously garnered experience at Tufts University (Boston), l'Université de Montréal and the Université Libre de Bruxelles. In her varied fields of study, be they Anthropology, Urban and Environmental Policy or Social Work, Dr. Jill Hanley consistently addresses issues of community development and social rights.

Dr. Hanley, as a qualitative researcher specializing in community organization and social policy issues where they intersect immigration status, is currently focusing on projects related to migrants with precarious immigration status. As part of her work, she is examining issues that range from access to health care to the defense of labor rights, particularly in the case of domestic workers and undocumented migrants. A principal goal behind Dr. Hanley's research is to document the challenges faced by the migrants so that the information can be used to strengthen community groups in their development and pursuit of rights as well as to inform policy change. Her students often have the opportunity to connect to community-based initiatives through their academic work.

An active member of Project Genesis since 1994, Dr. Hanley also co-founded the Immigrant Workers Center in 2000 and remains active there to this day. Her international experiences have involved community development, activist initiatives and academic exchanges in Brazil, Sri Lanka, the United States, the Philippines, Belgium and Indonesia
