OUR COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION

Diversity and inclusion are core values for the Colorado Women’s Bar Association, and we strive to incorporate these values into all aspects of our work including advocacy, communications, workplace environment, vendor selection, hiring, promotion and retention. We appreciate and value ideas that come from a diverse legal environment and want to bring diversity of thought, experience and expertise to everything we do. We believe that an inclusive bar provides an atmosphere that allows all individuals to attain their greatest potential and achieve the greatest benefits for clients.  

On April 14, 2020, we joined the Asian Pacific American Bar Association of Colorado, the CBA/DBA, and other diversity bars, in denouncing xenophobia against Asian and Asian American communities in Colorado. 

On May 30, 2020, we shared a message of unity from the Sam Cary Bar Association. “In these challenging times, it is more imperative than ever that we come together as a community--to both protect and support each other in our continuing endeavor to improve our collective condition....We stand together to demand justice and accountability...”  - Sam Cary Bar Association Executive Committee

On June 4, 2020 we sent a message of solidarity to our members regarding recent events. This message, "Time To Lead Beyond" from our President Miranda Hawkins, is also posted on our blog The 1891.
