[blindlaw] FW: Call for Diversity and Young Lawyers Fellowship Applications - Due April 15, 2014

Sat Mar 8 15:21:49 UTC 2014

Greetings, this is a wonderful opportunity for someone who is from a diverse
community to get involved with the ABA.  As many of you know, I am a blind
attorney and the GP Solo Division has been one of the most welcoming
entities within the ABA.  I have had tremendous opportunities for leadership
and meaningful input.  Currently, I serve on GP Solo’s Council and am
otherwise actively involved in the Division.  The Division also, of course,
has significant relevance for me because I am a solo.    Note also that
there is a fellowship program for young lawyers as well.  If you have any
questions about the program, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Best,

Scott C. LaBarre, Esq.
