You're invited to celebrate with us in 2024.


 

This momentous year marks the 125th anniversary of the National Association of Women Lawyers ("NAWL"). Our mission of advancing women in the legal profession and under the law remains as vital today as it was at our founding in 1899.

 

In the legal profession and beyond, the journey towards equal representation and empowerment of women persists. Recent events underscore the fragility of hard-won rights, but they also serve as a reminder of the resilience required to navigate challenges.


In 2024, we reflect on the legacy of our suffragist founders and the pivotal role of the right to vote in achieving equal rights for women.

 

Our calendar is brimming with exciting events, initiatives, and opportunities to connect.


Join us in celebrating 125 years!
