Time for an Upgrade

Over the coming weeks, we will be working on upgrading our website, and we want to hear from you! What changes do you want to see? Send your suggestions to Drew Collins at collins.ajm@gmail.com. 

 

   

Welcome all Law Students!

It may not be the start of the school year you expected, but classes are back in session. Whether you are a 1L or a returning student, remote or in person, the Massachusetts LGBTQ Bar Association wishes you a great school year ahead! 

Don't forget that Student Memberships are FREE! We would love to welcome you into the network. And don't forget about the (virtual) Annual Law Student Welcome Reception taking place on October 22, 2020 (see details under the Events link). It is free to attend and will be a great opportunity to connect with other area law students and attorneys. Register HERE. 

 

Be Part of the Fun! Don't forget that the the Bar Association has several Committees and Sections that are filled by members like you! Look through the list below and reach out if you have any interest in being a part of one (or more) of these dynamic groups. For more information on what each committee or section does, visit the "Sections and Committee" page on our website or send a message to Administrator@masslgbtqbar.org for more information.
