Harrison Drapo is a staff attorney at the Vermont Network Against Domestic. He lives on a small hobby farm with his wife and is passionate about his animals, rugby, and the law. While practicing law, he has developed many soft skills, like a trauma-informed eye, an empathetic ear, and a nose for pragmatic remedies. Those skills translate well when helping people in crisis meet their goals and progress into recovery.
Harrison learned some of those skills throughout the course of his life. After graduating in 2009 from Niagara University, Cum Laude, he became an officer in the U.S. Army and deployed to Afghanistan. Leaving the military in early 2014 was a difficult choice, but one that led him to work as a manufacturing supervisor for Polaris Industries and then law school in 2017. Since graduating from Vermont Law School in 2020, Harrison has worked at the Vermont Network helping Survivors inside and outside of the courtroom.
