The Orange County Women Lawyers
Association (OCWLA) is hosting our Annual SUMMER SIZZLE AND
JUDGE OF THE YEAR event this July. This
special summer event brings together over 200 of Orange County’s
top legal, judicial and community leaders. The
event is open to men and women and non-attorney guests of OCWLA
members and friends.
Charities Benefited.
Proceeds of this event once again benefit
many worthy causes, such as El Viento,
the Public Law Center, Orange County’s
Collaborative or “problem solving” Courts, and OCWLA’s
bar stipend funds.
þ
El
Viento
that offers mentoring and educational support to our local
community’s needy children. Last year, we
sponsored eight children in this program.
þ
Public Law
Center, a
non-profit 501(c)(3) group affiliated
with the Orange County Bar Association. It
provides free legal assistance for Orange County’s indigent
families.
þ
Collaborative or “problem solving” Courts
are specialized court tracks that address underlying issues that
may be present in the lives of persons who come before the court
on criminal, juvenile, or dependency matters. These
life-changing programs involve active judicial monitoring and a
team approach to decision making, and include the participation
of a variety of different agencies, such as Probation and health
treatment providers.
þ
OCWLA’s bar
stipend funds
to benefit law student graduates from OC law schools.
Last year was the inaugural year for OCWLA’s
Diversity Bar Stipend Award, joining the Association’s
long-standing bar stipend awards program. In
May 2009, we presented three much deserved bar stipends to
assist our recipients with their preparation for taking the
California Bar Examination.
This year our charities need you more than ever!
Come to:
PARTY, NETWORK, and
