Event Summary
Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) practices in the legal profession affect the public’s perception of an equal and fair judicial system. However, even with existing DEI policies and programs within legal organizations, they are still generally perceived as falling behind other sectors.

Speakers, among other things, will offer practical strategies to address the challenges and issues in promoting equity in the legal profession.
Key topics include:
