President's Message

It seems like only yesterday that I was installed as WLALA’s Communications Officer and now I am writing my first President’s Message. Time flies! I am truly honored to serve as the next President of WLALA and look forward to the year as we mark the organization’s 100th anniversary. We will be kicking off our celebration of this incredible milestone with a Centennial Celebration on Saturday, September 21, 2019 at the Intercontinental Hotel downtown. Yes, Saturday night! And there will be dancing too. Bring your spouse, significant other or friends and pay tribute to 100 years of WLALA’s empowering women in the law and in the community and the advancement of women’s rights. We are honoring three inspiring award recipients: the Honorable Holly J. Fujie, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge; Nancy Mintie, founder of the Inner City Law Center and Uncommon Good; and the ACLU of Southern California. Brenda Feigen – attorney, producer, co-director of the ACLU’s Women’s Right Project and the author of Not One of the Boys: Living Life as a Feminist – will provide a keynote address.
