MBA Seeks Volunteers for Fellows Program Task Force

The MBA Bar Fellows Task Force is an active group that facilitates the growing Multnomah Bar Fellows Program. The Bar Fellows Program aims to increase the diversity of our local bar by supporting a cohort of talented, outstanding law students (at both Lewis & Clark and University of Oregon law schools) who come from historically underrepresented backgrounds. The committee is a dedicated working group. We typically spend 2-5 hours monthly on supporting the Bar Fellows Program. Tasks include recruiting sponsors and judicial mentors, coordinating with both schools, and routinely checking in with the fellows themselves. For lawyers committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion, this task force is a fantastic opportunity to transform those ideals into hands-on action.

We are seeking one or two volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Kathy Modie at the MBA at kathy@mbabar.org. You can learn more about the Bar Fellows Program here.
