Taking the Women, Leadership & Equality Program to the Next Level
The Women, Leadership & Equality Program is grateful for the continued support of alumni and friends. For many years, women leaders (alumni and non-alumni) have participated in the curricular program by sharing their perspectives on the pressure, obstacles, and dilemmas they faced in achieving their positions. Thanks to generous philanthropic support from members of our community, we are able to enhance our curricular offerings and provide mentoring, networking, leadership training, and other professional development opportunities for our students, alumni, and broader legal community.
The Women’s Leadership Circle helps us grow our endowment to make even greater strides towards improving gender equality in the legal profession. If a major gift is not possible, please consider making a sustaining gift of $1,000 per year (or $84/month) and join our Sustainers Circle. For more information about how you can get involved, please contact Lisa Mebane, WLE Managing Director, at lmebane@law.umaryland.edu.
