[blindLaw] FW: Presidential Appointments

[davant1958 at gmail.com]

Hello All,

I have been asked to forward the below email. I have been active in the ABA
for 11 years now and currently serve on the Board of Governors. The
appointments application for the chance to be appointed to one of the over
700 entities is a great opportunity. Whether you practice disability rights
law or another area, there is great opportunity to make connections,
influence policy and just meet wonderful lawyers.  
Thank you.

Denise,


Can you share the blurb below with NFB and your contacts:

The 2023-2024 ABA Presidential Committee Appointments process is now
underway.  The online application at http://ambar.org/appointments closes on
Friday, February 10, 2023, at 5 p.m. CST.

We encourage your members from diverse backgrounds, once they have submitted
their nomination, to also complete the Diversity and Inclusion Center's
Diversity Presidential Appointments
Form<https://americanbar.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4OaezNw9RjmVoIS>.  We use
this short form to collect and add their names and information to a nominee
list that we support and share directly with the ABA Presidential
Appointments Committee.  Being included on the nominee list serves to
strengthen their nomination but does not guarantee appointment.

Best,

Amy Allbright
