About us
The mission of the National Association of Women Lawyers is to provide leadership, a collective voice, and essential resources to advance women in the legal profession and advocate for the equality of women under the law.

NAWL’s initiatives and activities include: • National and regional year-round programming focused on giving women lawyers the legal and business skills to succeed in the legal profession. • The NAWL Challenge Club, bringing together in-house counsel committed to increasing the percentage of women equity partners in law firms with talented high-potential women who are on the equity partner track. • National networking and leadership opportunities for women lawyers at all levels. • Amicus support in the Supreme Court of the United States and in other federal courts on issues of concern to women. • Signature events bringing together NAWL members in all practice areas to celebrate successes, share best practices, inspire the leaders of the legal profession, and develop future leaders of the profession. • Liaison relationships and partnerships with other professional organizations. • Publications of interest to women in law and opportunities for NAWL members to publish scholarly articles. NAWL welcomes the membership of individual attorneys, including private practice, corporate, academic, government and non-profit attorneys, and groups, including law firms, corporate legal departments, law schools, and bar associations.

Last week in Chicago, we were energized by the inspiring words of Stacey Abrams at #NAWLAnnual2024. Her fireside chat was the perfect way to celebrate NAWL's 125th anniversary. She highlighted the crucial role of voting rights in advancing women's equality and underscored the ongoing importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion, not just in the legal field, but throughout all aspects of our society. This week, Ms. Abrams' words guide us again through the complicated maze of threats to our democracy. Read the July 30 op-ed authored by Stacey Abrams and Margaret Huang, president and CEO of the Southern Poverty Law Center, here: https://lnkd.in/g9-MeJWj #NAWL #NAWLwomeninlaw #DEI #democracy #StaceyAbrams #USAToday #Chicago #law #legal #womenlawyer #NAWLAnnualMeeting #NAWL125
