The Stonewall Award recognizes those lawyers, members of the judiciary, and legal academia who have effected real change to remove barriers on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression in the legal profession and the world, nation, state and/or locale, and to recognize those who have championed diversity for the LGBT community, both within the legal profession and impacting the greater human universe.
In 2011, the ABA Board of Governors approved the creation of the Stonewall Award to recognize contributions by the recipients thereof to the advancement of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) individuals in the legal profession, and/or to LGBT legal issues, to be awarded by the ABA SOGI Commission.
Sponsorship information for the 2025 Stonewall Awards will be provided soon.
Your charitable sponsorship of the Stonewall Awards funds the annual projects and programs implemented by the ABA Commission on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI) that advance the policy, advocacy, and diversity initiatives for LGBT members of the legal profession and the greater LGBT Community.
If you have any inquiries, please contact SOGI Director, Skip Harsch: [email protected].
