From Our President

Dear Current and Prospective Members,

It is my deepest honor to serve as the 41 st President of the DuPage Association of Women Lawyers. We appreciate your continued support and involvement with our organization which continues to strive toward our mutual goal of civic engagement and connection to others in the community.

As an organization, and in a time where things seem so divisive, DAWL strives to promote and foster the interests of women lawyers and to bring us together as a community through our many events. As a Board, we are proud of the diversity in our membership and strive to expand not only our members, but those who wish to attend our events and engage meaningfully with our organization.

A DAWL membership provides value to you through discounted admission to our annual events, such as the DCBA/DAWL Veteran’s Day CLE and Lunch, the Joint Holiday Gala, Installation of Officers and Directors, and Judicial Reception. Membership also allows the opportunity to attend special “members only” events, including our ongoing Kelly Lunch Series. This is a unique opportunity for members of DAWL to connect with the members of the judiciary, for open discussion about the legal profession in a more casual setting. This year, we are looking to expand our members only events even further.

Your membership ensures the continuing success of our Association and provides our organization with the ability to continue hosting new and exciting events and opportunities. Membership also allows our organization to continue to host events and provide valuable outreach to the community. We look forward to seeing you at all of our events in the future. If you have been a member of DAWL in the past, we hope you will renew your membership. If you are considering joining our organization or have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at dawlawyers@gmail.com.

We thank you again for your support of DAWL, and hope to see you at our events this coming year.

With Appreciation,

Natalie M. Lamphier
