Equity Statement

EQUITY STATEMENT

The Austin Bar Association holds diversity and inclusion to be a core component of our mission to “enhance the legal profession, administration of justice, and our community through education, networking, and public service.” We recognize that the law plays a central role in combating inequality, and we believe that prioritizing equity and diversity and combating systemic bias makes our organization stronger and our profession better. We strive in all our actions and initiatives to encourage, support, and celebrate the diverse experiences and voices of our members and the communities we serve, to lift up every attorney in Austin, and to make our community a welcoming place for all people.
