Message from the NCWBA President
“Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end.” I always think of this quote when it is time for a season to come to an end. This is not just because I like late ‘90’s music. It’s also because it captures the fullness of an experience in a simple phrase. It recognizes that there can be bittersweet feelings in an ending. It encourages you to remember that even though something is ending, it still holds the promise and possibility of when it was a beginning. It gives you something to look forward to, as new beginnings often bring excitement and joy. It’s the perfect reflection point for my last sentiment as your NCWBA President.
Just like NCWBA, I turned 40 this year. And, I have had some . . . feelings about this milestone. But, what has helped me with these feelings is the reflective exercise of looking back upon what I have accomplished, what these first 40 years have looked like, and what I want my next steps to be. Our organization has gone through a similar exercise in preparation for our upcoming commemorative events for our 40th Anniversary.
While 40 feels like this long period of time, in the grand scheme of things, it may actually have been quite quick (or so I’m telling myself). In the last 40 years, we have seen advancements and changes in technology, the way we practice, the way the world works, rights, privileges, and so much more. We can look at some statistics from this time period – like the number of women lawyers in equity partnerships at law firms or the gender pay gap—and easily feel like we’ve made little to no progress. While we could look at other statistics—the number of women entering law schools, the number of women on the US Supreme Court—and see great change. Upon reflection, we have accomplished much, but there is still more left to be done.
So, as we draw close to the end of our 40 year’s beginning, we think about the new beginning of the next 40 years. We are proud of our accomplishments, but are at the point of a new beginning. What can we accomplish in the next 40 years? What can we fight for? What can we maintain? What can we build? So, it is with joy (and of course great enthusiasm!) that I look forward to the next 40 years and what this organization can accomplish. I’m so thankful to have each of my sisters-in-the-law on this journey with me. I hope to see each of you at our Annual Leadership Summit!
So, thank you for this beginning and this ending. It has been an honor and a privilege to serve you.

JOIN US AT NCWBA’S 40TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS IN CHICAGO IN AUGUST &
WASHINGTON, DC IN OCTOBER!
As we celebrate our “Ruby Anniversary,” the National Conference of Women’s Bar Associations is recognizing its accomplishments over the four decades since its founding in 1981 and the installation of its first Board of Directors in 1983-1984! We hope you will join us at one or more of our signature events, as we pay tribute to our founders; our current and past Presidents, Officers, and Directors; and our extraordinary member organizations!
As 2023-2024 President Sheila M. Abron recently noted in an email to Board alumni, what has made NCWBA shine is the amazing contributions of its leaders, whose service has been a vital part of NCWBA's history! We are looking forward to connecting with our NCWBA “Sisters In Law,” to toast NCWBA's past, and to celebrate our promising future.
With four decades of events, accomplishments, and friendships to applaud, NCWBA couldn't contain the excitement to just one anniversary event in one location, so we have two upcoming opportunities for you to participate in the celebrations! We would love to have you attend either (or both!) events – just be sure to RSVP soon at www.ncwba.org!
NCWBA 40th Anniversary Gala in Chicago
Join us at our Anniversary Gala on August 1, 2024 at Polsinelli’s offices in Chicago! (Thanks to our sponsors, there will be no charge for the Gala event.) In addition to tributes, music, comedy, and food, we will feature a special cocktail called the “Ruby Slipper.” After all, “There’s No Place Like Home,” and NCWBA has been a wonderful and supportive home for women’s bar associations and an advocate for equal rights for 40+ years! The event will feature music, onsite photos, anniversary swag, and a slide show backdrop featuring photos of our movers & shakers at past events. We also encourage you to include ruby or red in your attire!
The day after the Gala, on August 2, 2024, NCWBA will hold this year's NCWBA Women's Bar Leadership Summit at Jenner & Block. The final program at Summit will feature a select panel of NCWBA Past Presidents, who will demonstrate a key NCWBA principle – the importance and impact of leaders who “keep the ladder down” for junior women attorneys – to help them rise in the profession and into their own leadership roles. This event will be moderated by Sheila Abron (2023-2024 NCWBA President) and feature Pauline Weaver (NCWBA co-founder, member of NCWBA’s inaugural 1983-1984 Board of Directors, 1989-1990 NCWBA President, and a past ABA Officer), Amanda Green Alexander (2016-2017 NCWBA President), and Angel Zimmerman (2018-2019 NCWBA President). Summit events will then conclude with the installation of incoming 2024-2025 President Lindsey B.W. Savage and the 2024-2025 NCWBA Officers & Directors!
NCWBA 40th Anniversary Reunion in Washington, D.C.
NCWBA’s Reunion Reception will be held on October 17 at the offices of Akin Gump. In addition, NCWBA has arranged for additional optional events and excursions scheduled over the three-day period of October 16-18. Options include an opening reception on October 16, as well as events on October 17 & 18, such as family-friendly guided tours (in Washington, DC, at the Pentagon, etc.), a self-guided tour featuring a scavenger hunt with swag prizes. We are also planning evening “dine around” options, so you can meet up with past and present NCWBA colleagues at local restaurants.
Further details about both of the August & October events, with RSVP links, can be found at www.ncwba.org!
How to Maximize Your NCWBA Membership
by Angel Zimmerman
As a past president of a women's bar association, I can attest to how quickly one's presidency flies by. One of the best ways to prepare for this whirlwind experience is by attending the Women's Bar Leadership Summit, an invaluable resource for NCWBA members.
Attend the Women's Bar Leadership Summit
The NCWBA Women's Bar Leadership Summit coincides with the ABA annual meeting and takes place in the same city. This event is a treasure trove of networking opportunities, insights, and inspiration for current and future leaders of women's bar associations.
Timing Your Attendance
● January Board Year Start: If your board year begins in January, consider sending your president-elect to the Summit the preceding year. This gives her a chance to connect with other women's bar leaders and gather ideas for her presidency.
● July Board Year Start: For a board year starting in July, sending the president-elect or the newly-minted president to the Summit in July/August can be highly beneficial. This timing allows the new president to dive into her role with fresh perspectives and a solid network.
Some organizations find it useful to send both the president and president-elect. Since the president already has many responsibilities, the president-elect can focus on the "return and report" mission, bringing back valuable insights and helping to identify which projects to implement immediately and which require a longer-term approach.
Ensure Ongoing Representation
Consider maintaining a steady representation at the Summit. This approach helps your organization continually implement successful programs from
other women's bar associations, avoiding the need to reinvent the wheel each year. Regular attendance fosters a culture of innovation and continuous improvement within your organization.
Financial Support for Attendees
To maximize participation and ensure equal opportunities, it's beneficial if your organization can cover or share the costs for those attending the Summit. This practice ensures that leadership roles are not limited to those who can afford the travel expenses. It also opens up opportunities for women who have the time but not the financial means to contribute. Events tied to a budget line item often remain a priority within an organization. The consistent investment in the Women's Bar Leadership Summit can yield long-term benefits, as the knowledge and connections gained at the Summit are brought back and integrated into your organization's initiatives.
Plan to Maximize Your Membership This Year!
Maximizing your NCWBA membership involves proactive planning and strategic investment in leadership development. By attending the Women's Bar Leadership Summit and ensuring broad, equitable participation, your organization can thrive and continually evolve, benefiting from the collective wisdom and experience of women's bar leaders nationwide.

NCWBA Board Member Spotlight
Interview with Celia J. Collins, of Mobile, Alabama
How did you decide to accept a nomination to the NCWBA Board?
I began my first term with the NCWBA in 2009. Inspired by several members from the Birmingham Women's Section and the Alabama State Bar who had recently served, I was honored to be nominated by past NCWBA Board Member, Hon. Caryl P. Privett. Accepting the nomination was an easy decision, and I have loved serving the NCWBA for the past 15 years.
What are a few highlights of your work in women's bar organizations (whether ours or another one)?
One of the highlights I am most proud of is being one of the two birthmothers of the Women's Section of the Alabama State Bar. Despite the Alabama State Bar being a mandatory bar with many female lawyer members, back in 1993, there were hardly any women attending the Alabama State Bar meetings. In a conversation with the only woman on the Bar commission at the time, we both felt it was like an “all-men’s club” with no activities for women. We knew that needed to change. When we spoke with the President Elect of the Alabama State Bar, he fully agreed, and we initiated a Women in the Profession task force. As the Chair of this task force, we conducted a survey of Alabama women lawyers and received overwhelming feedback that they did not feel they had a place to be involved. Within two years, the task force became a standing committee. The women lawyers of Alabama were eager to find a place to get involved. Before long, there was an overwhelming number of women wanting to serve on the committee, leading to the recommendation to create a Women's Section.
The Women's Section was established to meet the needs of all female members of the Alabama State Bar. Its purposes include providing members with opportunities to network and communicate, enhancing their level of bar participation, and promoting the advancement of women in the legal profession. This year marks the 25th anniversary of the Women's Section of the Alabama State Bar!
Additionally, I am particularly honored to have received the 2023 Maud McLure Kelly Award from the Alabama State Bar. Named after the first woman
admitted to practice law in Alabama, this award is bestowed annually by the Women’s Section to recognize a female attorney who has significantly influenced the legal profession and demonstrated leadership within the state. It is a privilege to receive an award named in tribute to a pioneer like Maud McLure Kelly, whose dedication to women’s rights remains an enduring inspiration to all women in Alabama.
How has your career benefited from being a member of a Women's Bar Association?
Being a member of Women's Bar Associations has been tremendously beneficial for my career. I've built a strong network of women locally, statewide, and nationwide, which has opened up numerous professional opportunities and proved invaluable in meeting my clients' needs. Serving in Women's Bar Associations has increased my visibility throughout my career and led to speaking opportunities and accolades that have further promoted my professional profile. However, the greatest reward has been the friendships and connections forged with fellow women lawyers, enriching both personally and professionally.
Please give us a couple adjectives that describe you or your work.
Intellectually curious - My curiosity has been the driving force behind a lifelong love of learning and discovery. It compels me to ask questions, seek out new knowledge, and challenge my assumptions. This insatiable desire to understand the world around me leads to personal growth and a deeper appreciation for diverse perspectives.
Problem solver - I seek creative solutions that often require thinking outside the box and approaching challenges with a fresh perspective. By combining analytical skills with innovative thinking, I can identify unique angles and opportunities that others might overlook. My ability to synthesize disparate ideas into cohesive, effective strategies helps drive progress and improvement for my clients.
Who is one of your favorite legal storytellers (an attorney, judge, professor, author, television writer, screenwriter)?
As someone from Alabama, when I think of storytellers I love, my mind immediately goes to Harper Lee.
Currently I am enjoying the legal thrillers of another Alabama-based author, Robert Bailey. His books, often set in the South, mix his legal know-how with stories that keep you hooked. Bailey's novels feature interesting characters, intense courtroom scenes, and twisty plots that dive into justice and morality. His experience as a lawyer adds a real-life feel to his writing, making
his stories both gripping and believable. (If you enjoy John Grisham books, I highly recommend picking up The Professor by Robert Bailey.)
What have you loved about your time with the NCWBA?
When I reflect on my 15 years on the NCWBA board, I have loved how diverse our group is but I am struck by how much we share in common. We come from all over the country, representing various ages and different practice areas, yet we find common ground in our interests, experiences and goals. I've cherished getting to know these incredible women, forging deep connections that transcend our differences. The travel opportunities have been equally enriching, taking us to places I had never visited before and others I hadn't even considered, like El Paso and Oakland. These experiences with the NCWBA have broadened my horizons and created lasting bonds with my fellow board members.
What advice would you give to someone considering a nomination to the NCWBA Board?
My advice is: why not? While it's important to consider the time commitment and be prepared for travel to in-person meetings, serving on the NCWBA Board is a fantastic opportunity. Not only is it a great way to boost you professionally, but it also allows you to contribute meaningfully to the advancement of women in the legal profession. If you have a passion for this cause, joining the board can be a rewarding and impactful experience.
NCWBA Quarterly Membership Program Highlights
The June 11 and 12 quarterly membership program, How to Revive the Spark: An Introduction to Fun, was fun! We heard from five of our member organizations on fun opportunities they offer their members. The point of the program was to emphasize how we need to relax and enjoy each other. The toll our demanding profession takes on us renders timeout necessary.
Ashley Barriere and Olivia Greenberg spoke on Sexism BINGO offered by The Association of Women Attorneys, New Orleans. The program is advertised through the local bar associations. At the beginning of the program, a local woman judge speaks on the sexism she has observed or experienced. The judge’s talk is followed by Sexism BINGO. The participants are given cards with squares identifying examples of sexist conduct women attorneys experience in their practices. The conduct is called out, and participants check off the category on their cards. Discussion ensues. The program creates a safe space for talking about sexism in the practice of law.
Amy Petri Beard, of the Colorado Women’s Bar Association, spoke on their book club. CWBA posts notices on when the book club meets and identifies the books to be discussed. Amy selects books that are relevant to topics of interest during particular months, such as Justice Ginsberg’s My Own Words for Women’s History Month. She also includes books on topics covering social issues of the time. The book club meetings are virtual and have been well-attended. CWBA’s book club promotes social interaction, reading for pleasure, and an alternative to legal content with which we are inundated.
Marlyn Harp presented on Kansas Women Attorneys Association’s craft nights. KWA organizes crafting/artistic events themed for women attorneys. They create RBG necklaces at one of their events that local women law students enjoy. One of their signature events is opening up or adding pockets to women’s blazers. They open faux pockets and add interiors that include Wonder Woman themes. KWA members gather to create paper mâché lights, garden stakes, justice necklaces, holiday cookies, Linus blankets and placemats. This program is a success due to a dedicated group, low skill expectations, wine, snacks, consistent location and dates, and an artist in charge. The outcome is bonding, friendship and fun.
Kate Beurmann-O’Neill spoke about the Virginia Women Attorneys Association Prince William Chapter retreats and the vision boards they created. VWAA Prince William rents a cabin in the winter at Lake Anna. They enjoy getting to know each other and engage in various events. One such event is the Vision Board program. They enlist the services of a facilitator who supplies a wide range of clippings from magazines and other sources. Members select clippings that reflect who they are, where they have been and where they are
going. The clippings are glued to Vision Boards to display who they are. The goal is to assist with getting to know each other and ourselves.
Jill Seiferth, of the Virginia Women Attorneys Association Northern Virginia Chapter, presented on Paint & Sip. This program requires a location, easel, canvas, paints, brushes, art instructor, wine, and low skill expectations. The program is advertised through the chapter, which collects a fee for the instructor and art supplies. The program starts with participants selecting a painting they want to replicate. The art instructor provides guidance on how to accomplish that goal or how to remedy variations from that goal. Throughout the program, participants enjoy each other’s interpretations. Wine and conversation flow. The Wine & Sip program is designed to foster interaction and fun.
Shemeka Hankins presented on the sports nights hosted by the Hampton Roads Chapter of the Virginia Women Attorneys Association. VWAA Hampton Roads sends out the word to its members and asks them to bring potential new members for fun at the ballpark. They reserve a box or seating area and enjoy the games and the conversation. The goal is to engage, network and share.
The final quarterly membership program for the 2023-24 year will be on September 10 at 12:00 p.m. ET and 11, at 4:00 p.m. ET. The topic will be How to Accomplish Officer and Director Best Practices. Our speakers will be Sheila Abron, NCWBA President, and Brett Callahan, VWAA Past President.
GOOD Guys (Guys Overcoming Obstacles to Diversity) Returns to Chicago

NCWBA’s GOOD Guys: Chicago Leaders Edition has been carefully curated with input from our members to focus on engaging male leaders as activists for diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, and we encourage our members to consider who they know in Chicago, or who may be in Chicago at this time, and encourage them to attend. The Chicago Bar Association is offering MCLE credit for Illinois lawyers (1.50 hours Diversity/Inclusion PR-MCLE Credit). There is no cost for the event, and registration is required Thank
