Carol Robles-Román, former deputy mayor for legal affairs and counsel to Mayor Michael Bloomberg for 12 years, will become president and CEO of Legal Momentum, a national nonprofit that advances the rights of women and girls, the group announced Tuesday. She starts April 21.

Robles-Román, 51, led the city’s efforts to combat domestic violence and human trafficking through the creation of Family Justice Centers in all five boroughs. She also pushed for increased ethnic, gender and geographic diversity among mayoral appointments to the city’s Family, Criminal and interim Civil Court judgeships. Of Bloomberg’s 86 judicial appointments, 44 were women and 26 were minorities.
