The State Bar Board of Directors met on September 10, 2020 and approved a 15-member Task Force on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion that will be responsible for studying and proposing actions to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in the administration of justice and the practice of law. The Board of Directors also approved a 13-member Justice in Leadership Workgroup that will consider the diversity and inclusion suggestions submitted in the written and oral comments presented to the board at the July 27, 2020 Special-Called Board Meeting.
The Native American Law Section will have representation on the Task Force on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion through the appointment of Lisa Tatum by President-Elect Sylvia Firth. She made the request several days before our Annual Business Meeting and the Council by consensus approved Lisa Tatum to serve for the Section. We are pleased to have NALS involved at this level in bar leadership.
