Join the Committee on Women for their #LawMom Series
|
|
 |
The Committee on Women and the Legal Profession is proud to bring back their #LawMom initiative. #LawMom is a label created by the Committee on Women and the Legal Profession in 2016 as a way to publicize events hosted by the Committee which focus on the struggle of having a legal career and managing parenting responsibilities.
The first #LawMom labeled event was a luncheon panel of working women lawyers with children of varying ages. The panel discussed the personal and professional challenges of parenting responsibilities while maintaining a legal career. The panel shared personal experiences and advice with the attendees. Given the additional challenges and stressors #LawMoms are facing during the COVID-19 pandemic, the CWLP would like to help you start the week off on a positive note by sponsoring #LawMom Mondays. The CWLP is planning short, 20 minute, virtual “lunchtime chats” where #LawMom hosts will invite panelists to share their working and parenting experiences. These lunchtime chats will be recorded so they may be viewed at your convenience.
The first lunchtime chat will feature some of the committee panelists and asking what topics you’d like to hear about in future. Please RSVP to Member Services at
memberservices@nmbar.org
to attend the upcoming presentation on
July 22.
