BETTER TOGETHER
Our bar is better together literally and figuratively. As a self-governed bar, we set the standard for bar associations across the country. By becoming even more inclusive and intentionally increasing member engagement, we can address the challenges facing our profession from a stronger footing – mental health and addiction programming and intervention, artificial intelligence best practices, the provision of legal services to the less fortunate, appropriate disciplinary rules changes and preservation of the right to vote, financial stewardship, among others – and we can assess and offer a stronger portfolio of services and benefits.
