Where we have come from and where we are going\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With January around the corner, we approach the opportunity to gather with each other in San Diego at the AALS Annual Meeting. Whether you will be there or not, I hope you enjoy some highlights in this newsletter about the upcoming Annual Meeting, the worthy recipients of our Section awards, the service project we have planned, and details about our exciting annual meeting session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few virtual gatherings\u00a0are also planned.\u00a0Mark your calendars and save the zoom links for two upcoming education enrichment sessions\u00a0detailed in this newsletter. Also included in the newsletter here is a link to join an online community conversation focused on what\u2019s bringing you (us) hope for the new year. If you have colleagues who would enjoy any of these activities, please feel free to pass along the information and invite them to join.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even\u00a0with\u00a0so many challenges in our world, we have much to be grateful for, including the service our section members and our students provide. Pro bono legal service is a key part of health, safety, and security for our communities. Evictions are avoided. Consumer debt is mitigated. Domestic violence may be prevented. Child support is paid. People find answers and sometimes find closure through pro bono service. Some of the people engaging\u00a0in\u00a0pro bono service through our law schools are being celebrated in the inaugural AALS Pro Bono Honor Roll. Enjoy perusing the list and consider who you will\u00a0highlight\u00a0for their service next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you will be in San Diego, I hope you\u2019ll come and say hello. On Thursday, find me\u00a0at\u00a011 a.m. \u201cI Love a Clean San Diego\u201d service project, or later in our Section\u2019s 3 p.m. session, \u201cIncorporating Access to Justice & Pro Bono Across the Law School Curriculum.\u201d\u00a0On Friday, find me at our Section\u2019s 12 p.m. Awards gathering, where we\u2019ll honor three outstanding members of our community: Russel Engler, New England Law; Stephen Rispoli, Baylor University School of Law; and Deborah Schlosberg, Berkeley School of Law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

May our whole community enjoy a safe and healthy conclusion to 2022 and a safer and healthier year ahead.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
