Who We Are

NAWJ is a dynamic gathering of women judges who are dedicated to preserving judicial independence to women, minorities and other historically disfavored groups while increasing the number and advancement of women judges, and providing cutting edge judicial education.

I am part of a strong supportive group of women, and I felt that people accepted me for me.
