Who We Are

NAWJ is a gathering of judges and affiliated legal professionals to promote the judicial role of protecting the rights of individuals under the rule of law through strong, committed, diverse judicial leadership; fairness and equality in the courts; and equal access to justice.

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