The Boston Bar Association is pleased to announce that it
is now accepting applications for its 2017-2018 class of Public Interest
Leaders. The BBA’s Public Interest Leadership Program (PILP) is a unique
leadership program for new lawyers which promotes civic engagement and public
service by advancing the leadership role of lawyers in service to their community,
the profession and the Commonwealth.
We invite you to join us on Monday, March 6, 2017, to learn more about
PILP, which has four specific purposes:
- To identify
and recognize present and future leaders in the BBA and the Boston legal
community.
- To contribute
to the professional and leadership development of promising young attorneys.
- To integrate
young leaders into the BBA and its public service landscape -- at the same
time significantly contributing to the public interest.
- To build a
powerful alumni network of lawyer leaders who by their actions demonstrate
that part of being a successful lawyer is giving back to the
community.
The information session will feature PILP alumni who will provide insight
into the program, discuss the application process, reflect on their experiences,
and answer questions.
