Welcome to a new bar year! Your membership is greatly appreciated and valued.

It is my honor and pleasure to serve as your section Chair for the 2022-2023 bar year.  Our section leadership team is committed to continuing our tradition of offering exciting events, from our annual CLE in January, to our Thought Leadership event in the spring and networking and pro bono activities throughout the bar year. We are also very hopeful that we will be able to come together in the fall for our first in-person event in two years! We are planning a new, exciting, and engaging program.  We can’t wait to share more details with you in the upcoming months!

Joining a Committee

Our committees are responsible for executing on the section’s goals and objectives. The good work of our committees results in our successful events and programming. The committees have already begun planning their activities for this bar year, so if you are interested in being a member on any of our amazing committees listed below, or learning more about any committee’s work, please let me know. We are always looking for new committee members who can add new and diverse ideas and thoughts. Committee work also establishes an opportunity to network with other members and to be a part of section leadership. Committee work is virtual, so do not allow travel to be a barrier to you joining a committee!
